AbstractWater is human life's most important natural gift to achieve health and wealth. The study attempts to trace the rural community‐based best practices to achieve water harvesting through an explanatory research and survey method. The study realized that there are various practices for water conservation in rural communities, especially in hilly regions, which enjoy numerous benefits. India has community‐based practices, including Artificial Lakes, Pani‐kheti, Kuhls, and a bamboo‐based drip irrigation system. In this study, data were collected through a questionnaire, and the benefits of community‐based water management in Dang, a district of Gujrat, India, were assessed. The case studies have revealed how water problems have been solved through community participation. It can be seen from Dang's case studies, which are also in line with the reviews of related literature, that his efforts have only had some success. The rural people, predominantly tribal, are facing a resource crunch and water crisis, and through community partnership, they can achieve desirable outcomes with the government's support. The study found that rural people have achieved cost efficiency and revenue benefits from cooperative strategies.

Rainwater harvesting (RWH) feels right from a long term sustainability perspective. Short-cutting the hydrological cycle seems to make logical sense from an environmental stance, and the technique is being driven into new buildings in the United Kingdom (UK) through building rating systems which are in turn pushed by government policy. However, little work has been done to assess its environmental credentials from a whole life perspective. Controversially, those studies that have been done have found that RWH systems tend to have greater environmental impacts than mains supply infrastructure. This work seeks to investigate the latest studies, and provide a way forward in the debate.

Abstract: One form of education quality improvement efforts is through the management of quality improvement conducted by educational institutions. It is known that the institution directly conducts the formal education process which means that in running the education process is not detached from government policy. In the efforts to improve the quality of government education, it has been provided the quality improvement management widely in accordance with the potential owned by paying attention to the needs of society. Similarly, the integrated Islamic School is a school concept that combines general education with religious education which is expected to make the learners intelligent in cognitive, affective and psychomotor. Quality improvement efforts in an integrated Islamic school are initiated from input management such as infrastructure, financing, learners and educators and the process management that is related to learning such as curriculum and teaching activities in the classroom. The quality that can be seen directly from the output of the integrated Islamic School continues to be monitored continuously through the School review, Benchmaking, Quality Anssurance and Quality Control.Keyword: Integrated Islamic School, Management, Quality.

Describes an integrated model of error management which includes: the external environment; the corporate environment; the manager and the managed; incident management; inquiries; and, learning from errors. Includes classification of error types with examples. By understanding this model organizations can improve their ability to manage error.
