The rating and comment reflect the reviewer's opinion of the project's potential for success, though we need to see the diversity of the reviewers and their rating style across projects.
The rating is a number from 1 (Poor) to 10 (Excellent).
Note that it is difficult to compare applications due to their diversity, and therefore the comment provides a very important context to the number. It reflects the reviewer’s thoughts and recommendations regarding this application; why they feel this project will or will not be successful.
This application needs to address how the community will afford to chlorinate water and maintain the well. Would like to see sanitation education on not washing dishes with water from previous source.

WaterAid's guiding principles require us to look for solutions that are responsive to local needs, integrated (combining water, sanitation, and hygiene education providing the best health and poverty outcomes for poor communities), replicable, sustainable, and accountable.
With these guiding principles in mind, and given the scope of the four proposals WaterAid was asked to review, and the information provided in each proposals, we found the 10 school roof RWH systems in W. Bengal submitted by Barefoot College to be the most compelling of the three Rain Water Harvesting projects (10 School roof RWH systems in Assam also submitted by Barefoot College and RWHT Faith in Christ Primary School, Allentown/Freetown, Sierra Leone submitted by Safer Future being the other two projects). Water tables are dropping in many parts of India and water resources need to be managed carefully. Where groundwater is scarce, rainwater harvesting in schools and communities has been a successful supplement to other water sources.
CARE’s Ramal de Tierra Firme Project was unique in terms of its scale and scope compared with the other three proposals and the scope of WaterAid’s current project work.
