He said achieving Sustainable Development Goals of United Nations is possible only when people understand the reasons that limit their realisation.

Water quality is one such aspect. This course will build reliable water quality data by people which will also make them water-literate, said Prof Pradeep of IIT Madras.

It will also establish a database of water quality from diverse sources such as households, rivers, borewells, groundwater, and pipeline networks.

Two options

The students will have option to attend the lectures online or offline, or in recorded form. Their understanding of the concepts will be evaluated by online assignments and quizzes, say IIT Madras sources.

Those registering for the practical session will do measurements in the field and lab with hand-held instruments and field test kits, among others.

The water quality parameters studied include free chlorine, total chlorine, alkalinity, pH, oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), conductivity, total dissolved solids (TDS), temperature, turbidity, as well as presence and absence of E. coli and total coliforms.

Pilot study

The course has been designed based on a pilot study done during the last summer in different places across Tamil Nadu (such as Chennai and Erode, among others) involving college students.

The data from this endeavor was collated to create online data on water quality with spatial coordinates, and inputs from surveys.

Practical sessions

Since practical sessions occur at different cities and villages, it is essential to have many participants enroll from a given location and contribute towards building People’s Water Data.

Universities and institutes are encouraged to join hands in becoming a centre for the practical session.

More details can be obtained from the course coordinators, Dr. Ramya Dwivedi, email – ramya_coe@icsrpis.iitm.ac.in (IITM) or Ms. Suzan Kagan, email – suzankagan@gmail.com (Tel Aviv University).
