Abstract
Domestic water scarcity is a growing problem worldwide. Thua Thien Hue
Province in central Vietnam is an example of an area where water scarcity is being reduced
under programs that supply centrally piped water to households. However, not all
communes in Thua Thien Hue have piped water, and some areas of the province are still
suffering from acute water scarcity. This research surveys households in three different
communes in the province. The aim of the research is to explore how domestic water is
perceived by local people, how it is used, and how it should be improved.
