Nadi Filter Water Technology for poor communities
The Global warming is projected to intensify the hydrological cycle and increase the magnitude and frequency of intense precipitation events in most parts of Pakistan. Hence 2022 floods killed 1750 people, 1 million houses damage and 33 million displaced, presently residing as IDPs and results in huge economic losses due to damage to infrastructure, property and agricultural land, and indirect losses in or beyond the flooded areas, such as production losses caused by damaged stock or roads, or the interruption of power generation and navigation.
Based on 2022 floods & warnings in coming years, there is dire need to train the communities with capacity to face disasters themselves without any external support. Because the global climatic change has created alarming situation in many countries and relief agencies may not be able to work on same wavelength in the same country year after year as the donors may not be able to support to the same level year after year with flood relief. Even if the donors support the same tune year after year, the communities may not be able to migrate from their homes due to heavy floods and losses. Communities face the primary impact of disasters, yet the first and continued response to disasters comes from community members. Well prepared and protected communities are the first line of defense against disasters and a key to reducing vulnerability and increasing disaster resilience.
The needs of the flood affected are specific safe drinking water, health, food and shelter, however AHD Pakistan will tackle these issues of contamination in drinking water via AHD Nadi filter to access safe & clean drinking water via Nadi filter.
In addition to preparing communities to face disasters, there is also need to focus on core issues of the rural community so that their living standard is improved. The most important factor impeding rural community development is access to safe drinking water which causes serious water borne diseases problems.
Pakistan urgently needed such trades to tackle poverty and economic situation of the country to bring sustainable actions and positive change to create large scale similarity and skillful flood affected communities towards self-reliant. Nadi filter is only option for rural Pakistan to help poor communities on sustainable basis and help them with lifetime skills.
Association for Humanitarian Development (AHD) remained in close coordination with UNOCHA, PDMA Sindh and different NGOs/INGOs present on the ground to help the flood affected communities of Sindh. AHD has been actively involved in flood relief activities in district Thatta during 2022 floods and Badin, Tando Muhammad Khan and Mirpurkhas during floods of 2022. However, the floods of 2022 destroyed life in almost entire Sindh, district Sujawal, Badin & Thatta are the worst affected districts in Pakistan.
AHD aims to bring Safe Drinking Water for the rural flood affected families and AHD Nadi filter will solve the drinking water crises into sustainable solution drinking water via Nadi filter.

Mr. Abdul Khurshid Bhatti working as president / CEO for Association for Humanitarian Development and helping rural poor communities in Pakistan and African countries, Mr. Khurshid want to help 1 million people with access to safe and clean drinking water to save young children and women in rural areas.
Mr. Khurshid want to say to the international community that: Do not forget the indigenous people & poor rural communities of the world living in rural far and scattered areas, facing poverty, illiteracy, and health problems. There is lot of solutions around the world, local and adoptable we should all together promote in vulnerable communities by targeting developing countries. I hope and confident if we all join hands together and support such local initiatives the day will come when we will reach most of the vulnerable communities on this world with provision of access to safe and clean drinking water.
Association for Humanitarian Development (AHD) is a non-governmental organization established in December 2001-2002 & registered under societies Act XXI of 1860 on May 17th 2003, with the major objective to work for peace, justice, harmony, and equality through participation of the most disadvantaged and marginalized communities for the sustainability. AHD has initiated several livelihood and development programs by targeting rural women & children. The major accomplishment in this regard, is the introduction of Bio-Sand Water Filter (BSF) / Nadi Filter in 61,820 families Sindh & Pakistan to provide access of poorest communities to safe drinking water. AHD’s BSF Project is known as Nadi Filter (local name), because Nadi (a mud pot, 32-34 inches tall) is commonly used by local community in household for water storage purposes[1].
The innovation made with major objective of using limited available resources, particularly commonly used mud pots for water storage (such as; Nadi) in rural household for filtration that could sustained itself, without any external interventions. In support of this initiative, project by following participatory approach, focuses on mobilization of communities, formation of community groups, construction, installation & maintenance of filter and follow-up trainings in use of the filter, safe water practices & hygiene and sanitation.
Nadi filter technology project supported by national & international donors: Misereor Germany, UNEP-APFED, WHO Pakistan, ADP & Oxfam GB, CDP Govt. of Sindh, Global Giving, GSK – Save the Children UK, Care International, Hope for Children UK & corporate donations & individual donors. Under the project AHD has installed more than 300,000 Nadi filters during the past 15 years 2007-2022, providing life-sustaining water to more than 3,000,000 people, who are living in rural communities now drinking clean and safe water at their household level.
AHD Pakistan working in rural areas to reach the unreached people with access to safe and clean drinking water and UN SDG # 6 to access safe and clean drinking water for all is our main target. AHD each year measure the impact and thousands of people enjoy safe drinking water and get clean water at their household level.
To measure our progress towards our impact goals, our specific indicator for monitoring activities in the project will include the ongoing collection of information. The progress of activities will be tracked against a pre-defined activity timeline plan at the AHD HQ level. AHD has an independent monitoring and evaluation (M&E) department responsible for undertaking monitoring and internal audits in addition to evaluation responsibilities. As part of its evaluation activities, the department assists staff in developing appropriate objectives and indicators to measure the effects of the projects’ interventions; assists in the implementation of baseline studies for projects implemented by AHD; and follows up surveys or studies for the purpose of evaluation at the end of each project in addition to monitoring the performance of the project's quality. Upon project start, the M&E unit at AHD will develop a project fact sheet, including planned project activities, deadlines for their completion, and staff assigned. A field visit calendar will also be developed. Monthly reports on the project's progress will be generated by M&E staff and shared with donors.
Our team will give training on Nadi Filter to the beneficiaries and support them throughout the process. There will be monitoring visits to every village we’ve worked in to check if people are using Nadi Filter units. All of this will be monitored by our field program managers.
A final evaluation of the project will be generated upon its completion. The analysis will include the relevance and fulfillment of objectives, developmental efficiency and effectiveness, the impact achieved by the project activities, and project sustainability.
AHD Nadi filter will serve the rural poor communities and impact them with lifetime skills and help them to adopt and learn Nadi filter and use for themselves and their families for long term basis.
Nadi filter is problem solving technology in rural areas and even urban area communities also can get safe and clean drinking water at their door step.
The impact of rural communities is positive and rural women so happy and enjoying the Nadi filter solutions and skills in video below:

Water, water & water everywhere, nut not a drop to drink, Pakistan is under developing country with high inflation and food crises now days after the price hike in fuel prices and inflation. safe drinking water is not available ta anywhere in the Country of Pakistan and rural facing 80% people don’t have access to safe and clean drinking water.
AHD Pakistan introduced Nadi filter water technology, which is key to help rural and vulnerable communities and help them with LIFETIMNE skills and idea to get safe and clean drinking water for long term. The design of the Nadi filter unit is very innovative, easy, simple, replicateable, and adaptable. It’s material available at the local level or among villages and is being used to store water and Mutka is widely used all over Pakistan to store drinking water. It means the Nadi filter technology is 100% local-based technology which can be promoted at anywhere in Pakistan on large scale. Nadi filter water is lab tested water that defines the Lab tests on local canal water show 320 Thermo-tolerant Faecal Coli form (T.F.C) per 100ml and Tests on the same water after passing through a Nadi Filter show typically only 1 T.F.C per 100ml. The AHD's aim is to give high-quality "hands-on" motivational training at village level about germs and how to make affordable filters that contain good microbes that help us live healthily. Studies have shown that the filter can reduce diarrheal illnesses by up to 80%, including skin diseases, which has a tremendous impact on the overall health and productivity of a family and entire communities. The community said that "the canal water is very contaminated," they confirm, that their families used to be plagued by diarrhea, dysentery, and skin problems. "They said we had to spend a lot of money on medicines."
The filter is simply an optimized residence for the "good microbes" that eat up the microbes that cause diseases. The filter is designed to protect the good microbes in the sand, which would be destroyed if the sand was allowed to be churned up or drained of water. They require a stable surface to live on and a constant supply of dirty water and oxygen to feed on. Nadi filter units have been an innovative model for making a sustainable solution for the poor to lift themselves out of poverty. It is a solution that helps people gets safe and clean drinking water easily from anywhere. Yes, it could change the market through a reduction in diseases. Apart from this, it also increases poor people’s access to safe drinking water, resulting in major economic and social benefits. Most people use very expensive filters to get clean water for drinking purposes. That contain highly toxic chemicals to purify the water, but it is harmful for human health; it also bad in taste.
AHD Pakistan goal for UN SDG # 6 to achieve quickly targets to one million Nadi filters for one million poor families and about 6.3 million people will have safe and clean drinking water till 2030, this is the goal of AHD Pakistan.
AHD Pakistan presently reached 345,000 families and about 2,173,500 about 2.2 million people getting benefit and happy to get safe and clean water at their doorsteps. AHD strategy for the next years is to reach those communities who don’t have access to clean drinking water and those who don’t have the capacity to purchase expensive filters for themselves, so in this regard, AHD will find such areas and provides them approximate 20,000 to 30,000 Nadi filter units with TOT trainings in the upcoming year. AHD has to reach more families; we will have to provide them with Nadi filter TOT training and install 30,000 Nadi filter units in the next five years. And same others organization will be mobilized.
After the implementation of our activity, the end-beneficiaries will have access to safe and clean drinking water as each family will be provided with a Nadi Filter, which cleans and purifies the water using bio-sand technology. No harmful or hazardous chemicals are used in this filter; it's a totally natural solution due to which people will be able to prevent various diseases and live a healthier lifestyle.
Once this model is implemented, the villages will be able to step towards sustainable development.
Our impact goals are orient all aspects of our work are to Door to door visits, Awareness Workshops, Seminars, Meetings, Exposures and Registration of SHG/CBO/CCB etc.
We consider our models to be innovative because of the unique products like Nadi filter which help people overcome major problems of their lives like drinking safe water.
The major objective of using limited available resources, particularly commonly used mud pots for water storage (such as; Nadi) in rural household for filtration that could sustained itself, without any external interventions. In support of this initiative model by following participatory approach, focuses on mobilization of communities, formation of community groups, construction, installation & maintenance of filter and follow-up trainings in use of the filter, safe water practices & hygiene and sanitation. The Post installation also includes monitoring and support from staff for communities as required. In all respects project seeks, greater men’s participation in project activities, as this proved to be more successful to promote filters and to gain greater access to women in communities.
AHD Pakistan working in rural areas to reach the unreached people with access to safe and clean drinking water and UN SDG # 6 to access safe and clean drinking water for all is our main target. AHD each year measure the impact and thousands of people enjoy safe drinking water and get clean water at their household level.
To measure our progress towards our impact goals, our specific indicator for monitoring activities in the project will include the ongoing collection of information. The progress of activities will be tracked against a pre-defined activity timeline plan at the AHD HQ level. AHD has an independent monitoring and evaluation (M&E) department responsible for undertaking monitoring and internal audits in addition to evaluation responsibilities. As part of its evaluation activities, the department assists staff in developing appropriate objectives and indicators to measure the effects of the projects’ interventions; assists in the implementation of baseline studies for projects implemented by AHD; and follows up surveys or studies for the purpose of evaluation at the end of each project in addition to monitoring the performance of the project's quality. Upon project start, the M&E unit at AHD will develop a project fact sheet, including planned project activities, deadlines for their completion, and staff assigned. A field visit calendar will also be developed. Monthly reports on the project's progress will be generated by M&E staff and shared with donors.
Our team will give training on Nadi Filter to the beneficiaries and support them throughout the process. There will be monitoring visits to every village we’ve worked in to check if people are using Nadi Filter units. All of this will be monitored by our field programme managers.
A final evaluation of the project will be generated upon its completion. The analysis will include the relevance and fulfillment of objectives, developmental efficiency and effectiveness, the impact achieved by the project activities, and project sustainability.

The innovation of AHD Nadi filter technology contributed in drinking water crises to the community that they have now opportunity to get clean and safe drinking water by filtering from Nadi filter unit. Nadi filter unit filter water from 98 to 100% removal of biological contamination.
The filter is simply an optimized residence for the “good microbes” that eat up the microbes that cause diseases. The filter is designed to protect the good microbes in the sand which would be destroyed if the sand was allowed to be churned up or drained of water. They require a stable surface to live on with a constant supply of dirty water and oxygen to feed on. The sand in the filter provides an enormous surface area for them to live on and they multiply to fill this space. This takes two to three weeks to establish. In the mean time the water is far better than before even after a day or two.
Nadi filter unit are Technological Adaptation of the Centuries
AHD has initiated several livelihood and development programs by targeting rural women & children. The major accomplishment in this regard, is the introduction of Nadi Filter in Pakistan to provide access of poorest communities to safe drinking water. AHD’s BSF Project is known as Nadi Filter (local name), because Nadi (a mud pot, 32-34 inches tall) is commonly used by local community in household for water storage purposes.
The innovation made with major objective of using limited available resources, particularly commonly used mud pots for water storage (such as; Nadi) in rural household for filtration that could sustained itself, without any external interventions. In support of this initiative, project by following participatory approach, focuses on mobilization of communities, formation of community groups, construction, installation & maintenance of filter and follow-up trainings in use of the filter, safe water practices & hygiene and sanitation.
Nadi Filter is a technological adaptation of the centuries old slow sand filtration process. It is not a newly developed technology, several commercial and community-scale implementations exist in different countries. The largest use of BSF technology has been in the humanitarian arena. But in coastal areas of Sindh, it is first time to take such initiative at household level by AHD. Technology and method exist to bring improved water and sanitation practices to even the most remote areas. It’s an affordable, sustainable household technology, proven to be very effective in improving the quality of water to make it safe for drinking, cooking, bathing, and cleaning.
