Kenya’s access to safe drinking water stands at 60 per cent, leaving 19 million people without access to safe drinking water.
KMT revised is water sector strategy in 2015 after identifying numerous systemic constraints and underperformance.
To address the problem KMT partnered with Water and Sanitation for Urban Poor (WSUP), Water Services Regulatory Board (WASREB), Water
Services Trust Fund (WSTF), County Governments, WASH stakeholders and six Water Service Providers (WSPs).
The aim of the partnerships was to develop and implement an intervention with broader objectives in:
- emergence and adoption of a service delivery model for water utilities
- market-led approach for pro-poor services expansion, addressing Non-Revenue Water (NRW) management in water utilities and business-to-business (B2B) linkages for climate-smart, ICT, green financing and technological innovation
This report discusses the development of an enabling environment that helped create improved access to quality water.
