Mozambique: Clean Water, Healthy Family
Mozambique is one of the world’s poorest countries. In Cuamba district, Niassa province, only 50% of people have access to clean water and just 24% have decent toilets. Many rely on unsafe water sources, and open defecation is common, leading to the rapid spread of diseases.
WaterAid has been working in Niassa since 1995 and now aims to improve water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) in five of Cuamba's rural healthcare facilities (HCFs). The project aims to provide 5,000 people with access to clean water and toilets, and improve hygiene for 5,000 people.
We will build two new water supply systems and rehabilitate three existing boreholes. Handwashing stations and new toilet blocks will be installed, along with waste management units. We will also conduct hygiene trainings and support the formation of water committees to ensure community management of these resources.
By working with local authorities and communities, we aim to create sustainable and climate-resilient WASH services that can serve as a model for future investments.
Help us improve living conditions in Cuamba and provide more people with access to clean water and better hygiene.
