This project aims at raising the efficiency, quality and sustainability of water supply and sanitation services and increasing access to clean drinking water in poor, rural areas. Works will include the rehabilitation and construction of water supply and sanitation systems that will serve around one million people. This will, in turn, help improve health conditions of the local population from the reduced risk of waterborne illnesses and substantially enhance living conditions.
