The 4th World Water Congress featured an exciting technical programme bringing together the perspectives of research and practice, and covering all aspects of water and wastewater services within a context of sustainable catchment and basin management. From this large and high-quality programme papers are being selected following peer review for publication in this journal. This issue contains papers selected from the session on innovation in water supply.
Topics covered include: demand management; efficient water use and conservation; non-conventional water sources; water loss and leakage management; wastewater reuse (including industrial and agricultural applications); and sustainability in water-stressed environments. These articles report some of the latest advances in research, policy and practical applications relating to efficient water supply and wastewater reuse.
