>  
> Seminar: Water
> and Energy: Getting the Priorities Right for Smallholder
> Farmers
>
> This seminar will explore water management and energy
> development that will better meet the needs of smallholder
> farmers. It will assess how applications of green water
> management change options for rural water, associated energy
> development and watershed
> management. It will compare how the energy consequences of
> alternate irrigation technologies – small-scale
> irrigation with diesel or treadle pumps for example versus
> large-scale schemes with electric pumps or gravity-fed
> irrigation – affect the trade-offs
> faced by rural communities, as well as how value chains
> involving the private sector can integrate water management
> and energy strategies.

> UNICEF will present the Monitoring Results for Equity
> System (MoRES) framework developed in 2010 as part of

> SDI grassroots activists will focus on spatial equity in
> sanitation provision planning at the city-level, drawing on
> pilots in informal settlements in four African cities, with
> a presentation from Malawi.
> This presentation draws on action research conducted by SDI
> and IIED, and covers the challenges of providing scalable
> sanitation solutions with, and for, the urban poor in
> partnership with local government.
