closed

The objective of the Greater Maputo Water Supply Expansion Project for Mozambique is to increase access to clean water for residents in the Greater Maputo area. The project will finance four components: (i) component A, investment in water supply production; (ii) component B, investment in water supply distribution; (iii) component C, technical assistance to the Water Supply Investment Fund; and (iv) component D, capacity building and operational support to the water regulatory council. The achievement of the project development objective (PDO) will be measured in terms of the following indicators: (a) direct project beneficiaries, percentage of whom are female; (b) people in urban areas provided with access to an improved water source under the project; and (c) increased capacity of the water system. The project is expected to directly benefit approximately 100,000 households in the Greater Maputo Area who will be directly connected to the formal water supply system in Greater Maputo and will be able to receive treated, piped water.
