PROJET D'AEPA EN MILIEU SEMI URBAIN

Close

The Semi-urban Water Supply and Sanitation Project supports developmental efforts by the Government of the Democratic Republic of Congo, with priority on strengthening water supply and sanitation, accessing safe drinking water and sanitation in semi-urban Centers where poverty increased dramatically during the years of instability due to rural exodus, looting and deterioration of drinking water installations. The project is part of the Government's development strategy, particularly the PRGFP 2006-2008 and 2011-2015, under which the authorities mostly seek to promote strong growth and reduce poverty. It contributes to the development of access to basic social services, which is one of the priorities of the Government's strategy. The project is structured around five key components: (a) rehabilitation and extension of drinking water supply systems; (b) communication for behavioural change; (c) study of the Rural DWSS Plan; (d) institution building; and (e) project management.
