Abstract

This paper discusses the best use of technologies to assist people in critical living conditions. Developing countries with huge shortages of water, food, education, and services rely on external help for relief and possible paths to development. This paper considers the appropriate introduction and use of technologies in the water sector and provides examples to underline how their sustainability is crucial to achieving real development in a specified location.
