Project General Description

This intervention concerns the Climate-Change and Covid-19-Resilient Drinking Water Supply and Sanitation Support Project in The Kayes Region and Kati Circle. It aims to contribute to the improvement of rural communities’ living conditions in Kayes Region and Kati Circle by facilitating access to climate-change and COVID-19 resilient drinking water supply, hygiene and sanitation. Its implementation will provide smart, climate-change resilient infrastructure as well as feasibility and detailed design studies aimed at providing universal water coverage throughout the Kayes and Koulikoro Regions. This project will also provide an opportunity for DNH to acquire institutional and organisational capacity in terms of public water service and IWRM. It comprises the following three components: (i) immediate interventions and COVID-19 preventive measures; (ii) investment planning and water resources management; and (iii) capacity building, project coordination and management.
