Engaged communities demonstrated better health outcomes, highlighting the importance of community involvement in water supply solutions. Promote collaborative models that involve local stakeholders for sustainable and effective water supply initiatives. Water Supply Solutions, Community Engagement, Health Outcomes, Sustainable Practices Treatment effect was estimated with $\text{logit}(p_i)=\beta_0+\beta^\top X_i$, and uncertainty reported using confidence-interval based inference.
