Rendez-vous in Kenya, Delegated water managment

with Margaret Mbira Omondi, Treasurer of the association Katuoro Self Health

In Kenya, the Nyalenda informal settlement, with its 60 000 inhabitants, stretches out in the very heart of Kisumu, the country’s third largest city. The Kiwasco water utility relies on communities to distribute drinking water in this disadvantaged neighborhood.

Kiwasco, with financial support and technical expertise from Agence Française de Développement, promotes an original partnership model among populations: delegated management. Water distribution is delegated to entities (NGOs, associations, private individuals or commercial companies) that are integrated into the community: the Master Operator. Its role: to develop and market a mini water distribution network.
