For the RWH challenge, you need to address the following key points

• Research : Gather data and research various rainwater harvesting techniques to determine the most suitable approach for the campus, considering logistical constraints and climate. Use this research to pinpoint ideal locations on campus for implementing these systems

• System Planning and Development : Formulate a well-organized implementation plan for RWH systems at the designated locations, and devise a strategy for effective water outsourcing to create a self-reliant water management system.

• Engagement & Evaluation: Involve the Community and Monitor Performance - Describe strategies to engage with the IITB community for feedback, input, and support for the Rwh system as it requires high maintenance and development of trust within the community.

Note :

You must conduct independent research to compile essential data, encompassing maintenance costs, current water costs, expenses associated with the rain-water harvesting system along with the amount of water requirement it is capable of fulfilling. In case of failure or difficulty to find data you can use a guesstimate.

• Innovation : Uniqueness and creativity of the proposed solution.

• Feasibility : Practicality and viability of implementing the solution within the existing campus infrastructure and budget constraints.

• Effectiveness : The ability of the solution to address the key challenges and improve the overall delivery experience for students.

• Scalability : Potential for the solution to handle increasing delivery volumes as the campus grows.

• Collaboration : Quality of proposed collaboration with relevant stakeholders.

Participants are expected to submit a detailed proposal outlining their innovative solution, including implementation plans, cost estimates, and potential collaboration strategies. Additionally, a prototype or proof of concept demonstrating the proposed solution is encouraged to supplement the proposal.

Note:-

Participants are encouraged to think creatively and leverage their skills, knowledge, and resources to devise a solution that not only addresses the immediate problem but also serves as a model for optimizing in similar educational institutions. The winning solution will not only enhance the experience for IIT Bombay students but also inspire future innovations in the field of campus logistics.

The primary objective of RWH challenge is to devise and implement a comprehensive, viable, and cost-effective plan for the rain water system at IIT Bombay.The proposed solution should address the existing issues and provide a detailed plan of action for the implementation. Students are encouraged to explore various avenues, including rainwater harvesting technology, efficient system design, communication strategies for community involvement, and collaboration with local stakeholders, to develop innovative and sustainable solutions for rainwater harvesting.
