5. Your projects Unique Selling Points
Selling points:
A concrete solution for all investments in water infrastructure, and if well targeted, the best way to use water for empowering women, the land-poor, disabled and other marginalized
A lively global community which is learning rapidly about cost-effective knowledge generation on innovative community-driven multiple-use water services
Difficulties
Fund raising is difficult, because of the single-water use silos among donors and disciplinary boxes of scientists, and low costs of e.g. the global MUS Group
