BENEFICIARY GROUPS

The BGs will be responsible for planning, technology selection, and constructing their RWSS facilities, providing their part of the capital cost contribution, managing O&M of the improved facilities, and levying and collecting sufficient user charges. Representative BCs will be set up by each of the participating BGs.. Their composition, functions, method of selecting members by laws, legal framework and relationship with the GP and KRWSA have been agreed. The project would make vigorous efforts to maximize women's representation and management role in the BCs. The project rules require that membership of BCs would be at least 50% women, and 20% from socially disadvantaged groups. At least one of the top management position of the BC (President or Treasurer) will be held by a woman.
