About SWW

CSE's four decades of extensive research work in the water, sanitation and allied sectors and continuous interactions with local and global professionals has helped identify a substantial gap in knowledge and skill building across the country at various levels of operation. Capacity building is essential to facilitate an integrated approach to urban water and sanitation management. Thus, the School of Water and Waste was set up as part of the Anil Agarwal Environment Training Institute. At our state-of-art campus in Neemli, the School offers an interdisciplinary, double loop and cross-country learning tailored to the ground reality of the major problems of the Water Supply and Sanitation sector in the urban landscape.

Vision

The SWW envisions to create a water wise and waste prudent society. It is an emerging research and knowledge dissemination hub in India and the global South working towards creating a cadre of water and sanitation professionals. This community of practice will take CSE’s efforts forward by developing implementable solutions.
