SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
For the purpose of the study, descriptive research is used. Descriptive research helps to portray
accurately the characteristics of particular individual, situation, or a group. Convenience sampling
method is used in this study to collect the samples. When population elements are selected for inclusion
in the sample, based on the ease of access is called convenient sampling. The independent variables are
educational qualification, age, gender, and area. The dependent variables are dial for water scheme,
modes of water supply, recycling kitchen water, prime causes of water scarcity and conservation of
water.
Another purpose if the study is to provide more information on the Impacts of water shortage
in Metro Manila. The research findings would help the government and relevant water supply to
prevent future occurrence by informing them of the identify the causes of erratic water supply. This can
ensure future water security, while reducing the challenges posed by decreased water supply. Findings
from this study would be important as they contribute to the government's future planning due to
increased population and environmental management of natural resources, especially water, because
water supply is a basic necessity to prevent future occurrence. The findings of the study will serve as an
eye opener to recognize the impacts of water supply for both municipal council and other
environmental organizations. This would also encourage them to implement water management laws
and regulations to minimize negative impacts. This will ensure a safe water supply.
RESEARCH AIMS
Promoting a public-private partnership because vast majority of finance for water and sanitation
is provided by the public sector in developing countries. The private sector provides around five
percent whilst development assistance provides around 20%. However, developing country
governments tend to allocate very little of their budgets toward pro-poor water and sanitation
services. The international private sector finance also steers clear of explicitly pro-poor water
sector initiatives. Broadly, more finance is deterred from entering the water and sanitation
sector in developing countries because of commercial risks, political risk and governance issues,
a lack of good projects and a lack of national capacity. Out of these, unsatisfactory governance
seems to be the biggest constraint. Current aid commitments could make a much more
significant contribution to the problem if they were deployed to mitigate these constraints, thus
“unlocking” the potential of the much greater volumes of user-finance and private sector
finance that exist, to meet the financing challenge.
To provide insights into policy recommendations that will improve water quality, improve waste
water management, reduce water pollution. Enhance sewage systems and protects dams ,
Lastly to established what measures should be put to alleviate the problem.
consumer education to encourage behavior modification, insuring that the public are aware of
the value and importance of appropriate water use;
Conducting consumer education to encourage behavior modification, insuring that the public
are aware of the value and importance of appropriate water use and to examine the
relationship of education, occupation, income and household type with the consumption
of water
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
What are the perspective of the respondents on the causes and impact of the water shortage in
metro manila?
To what extent is the water supply service accessible to all households and industries of metro
manila?
What measures should be put in place to alleviate the problem of water shortage in metro
manila?
HYPOTHESIS
By conducting this study, We researchers conclude to give recommendations, alternatives,
and education to improve the quality of water management. We also conclude that when individuals are
educated on water scarcity issues and water saving techniques; they will make choices that lower
consumption at the individual level. Current water policies in metro manila do not take into account the
value of water and are already causing rivers may run dry or continuously decreasing before they even
reach the water reservoir like La mesa and Angat dam. Across other provinces especially in tanay,rizal.
water utility companies charge for the delivery of the water and charge their customers by volume of
water used.
We researcher are trying to find some alternative or practices that can help to lower the
consumption of water.
