The goal of this Activity is to facilitate the economic recovery of select crisis-affected communities in North-Eastern Nigeria. The purpose is to bolster the three state governments’ capacities to create and sustain enabling environments for the Small Town Water Supply and Sanitation Agencies (STWSSA) and Water Consumer Associations (WCA) operators, and for these service provision agencies to increase their capacities to sustainably provide essential WASH services.
This Activity will:
● increase access to water and sanitation services in order to reduce illnesses and child mortality, and to sustain health outcomes; and
● Strengthen local WASH institutions including STWSSAs and WCAs to sustain WASH services.
