    Dear Friends, We are happy to bring you the Jan-Mar-2021 quarter issue of the WIN Newsletter. The Covid19 situation, after showing substantial reduction in cases upto February, has again deteriorated, with sudden and rapid growth in the number of new cases in March. Strong recovery rate and our growing vaccination program provide ground for cautious optimism. Fortunately, as the world’s largest producer and user of vaccines, India is well placed in terms of the Covid Vaccine production and stocks as well as a strong immunisation program. Our economy shows encouraging recovery with resumption of most economic activities, with very strong upturn in basic consumption goods, rural sales and corporate results. Travel still remains highly restricted, a major barrier to collaborations, field visits and also a significant barrier for startups with physical products. Our project partners have now reached nearly the full level in project work, having worked out creative ways to carry forward projects during the pandemic. Our R&D projects reached promising stages. These include the IIT Kharagpur project to take sewage water through modular multi- stage process to potable level water output, IIT Bombay project to produce prototypes for household desalination using capacitive deionisation through carbon nanotubes technology, and IIT Gandhinagar project of household decontamination filter using Surface Engineered Particle technology. Our NGO partners continue to work with communities, and in addition help bring new innovations to these communities, through multi-stakeholder and community empowerment approach. In this issue, we cover our multi-stakeholder approach in Water and Sanitation, bringing value to grass root interventions with multiple innovations in technology and processes, community empowerment and knowledge management.
