摘  要

持续的家庭供水对当前全球饮用水、环境卫生和个人卫生议程至关重要。但是,农村地区普遍存在歇性供水的问题了确定导致农村不同供水模式的原因,我们选择了中国安全饮水项目所涵盖的38个村级供水设施进行模糊集定性比较分析,以确定导致系统供水模式差异的因果路径。根据每个案例的结果,研究确定了六种供水模式的配置,其中包括三种采用家庭持续供水配置配置1的特点是自来水公司有政府补贴,使用水表付费。配置2的特点是水务公司覆盖人口少,有政府补贴,且村民参与管理。配置3的特点是水务公司由一个富裕的村庄集体管理和拥有,并有节水举措。缺乏基于水表的账单、政府补贴和节水举措是歇性供水的主要原因。结果突出了配置方法在理解各种情况下的不同供水模式的独特性,强调了政府补贴、村民参与、节水计划和基于水表的收费对实现家庭持续供水的重要性。

ABSTRACT

Ensuring a continuous water supply (CWS) for households is beneficial for the current global drinking water, sanitation, and hygiene agenda. Despite improvements in water supply, intermittent water supply (IWS) remains prevalent in rural areas. To determine the factors that lead to different water supply modes for villages, we select 38 village-level water utilities covered by the Chinese Safe Drinking Water Project for fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis to identify causal configurations (‘pathways’) that lead to IWS or CWS across systems. Six configurations of water supply mode are identified on the basis of the outcomes of each case. Among these, three configurations for adopting CWS are determined. Configuration 1 features water utility with government subsidy and bills using a water meter. Configuration 2 features water utility with small population coverage, government subsidy, and villager participation in the management. Configuration 3 features a water utility collectively managed and owned by a rich village and water-saving initiatives. Configurations that lack meter-based bills, government subsidies, and water-saving initiatives are the main paths for IWS. Results highlight the uniqueness of the configurational approach in understanding different water supply patterns across various cases and emphasise the importance of government subsidies, villager participation, water-saving programmes, and water meter-based billing to achieve CWS.
