Water crisis is a matter of grave concern, it should be everyone’s business and a collective responsibility. NITI Aayog believes that India’s groundwater crisis due to excessive exploitation is perhaps the worst water crisis in its history. The water resources, including ground water is actually depleting very rapidly owing to a number of natural and anthropogenic factors. It calls for immediate action to protect our water resources.

Keeping this in view, this web session was organized by NOFAA (Noida Federation of Apartment Owners Association) and Global Foundation to generate awareness on water conservation and most importantly promote rain water harvesting. Rainwater harvesting offers a huge opportunity to overcome our water crisis to a great extent.
