Resumen

This multifaceted approach to science-led rural water supply policy development for Malawi?s Lake Chilwa Basin is founded on a conceptual model informed by its paleo-environment and monitoring of its current water flow/quality. It is conditioned by a recent water supply functionality assessment enabling policy relevant recommendations for sustainable water resource management. The approach is deserving of wider application in similar settings across the developing world.
