A Paradigm of Water Conservation Excellence Kirkasal, Man, Satara, Maharashtra, India
Abstract: The failure of conventional approaches to achieve equitable and sustainable water management and conservation has prompted a new way of perceiving and acting with groundwater. This is creating a ?new water conservation paradigm? that emphasizes broader stakeholder involvement; integration of sectors, issues and disciplines; attention to the human dimensions of management; and wider recognition of the economic, ecological and cultural values in Kirkasal village of Man block of district Satara, Maharashtra, India. This paper presents the success story of Kiraksal through innovative, community-driven water management initiatives, Kiraksal has undergone a remarkable transformation into a water-secure region, setting a benchmark for sustainable development.
