In this episode, 'Understanding the Future of Urban Water and Sanitation’, with Dinesh Mehta and Meera Mehta, we explore the need for water supply and sanitation as an integral part of the Indian cities.

In the second part of the episode, we discuss the role played by Performance Assessment System (PAS) in the monitoring mechanism of water supply and sanitation systems throughout the value chain. We also discuss the role of PAS in identifying major challenges in water supply and sanitation sectors in Indian cities. We further develop an understanding the various emerging innovations in water and sanitation sectors including the financial feasibility. This is followed by a discussion on day zero concept and how we can mitigate the same. At last, they help us understand the different skillsets that youth can develop to work in the area of water and sanitation .
