Multiple-use water services (MUS) describe a participatory, integrated, and poverty-reduction focused approach that takes a community’s diverse water needs as the starting point for providing services.
Multiple-use water services move beyond the conventional sectoral barriers of the domestic and productive sectors and provide for all water needs in a community.
