closed

The Small Towns Water Supply and Sanitation Project for Ghana aims to increase access to small towns water supply and sanitation services in six regions over the next 4 years, providing 500,000 people with water supply facilities, and 50,000 people with sanitary facilities. The project has the following three components: Component 1) will provide resources for water and sanitation services in four types of contexts: (a) small towns subprojects planned but not implemented; (b) new small town systems; (c) rehabilitation of small towns systems; and (d) institutional and household sanitation facilities and hygiene promotion activities in small towns. Component 2) will support training and technical assistance for major stakeholders to improve their capacity to fulfill their sector roles. Component 3) will provide Community Water and Sanitation Agency (CWSA) with a management fee equal to five percent of the funds disbursed under the project (component l), supporting the incremental costs incurred by the Agency to implement the project.
