This department has the following components;

Construction of boreholes and shallow wells, to enable village people to fetch water for domestic consumption.


Improve community access to safe water sources, by putting in place effective measures, through protection of existing unprotected water sources involving local leaders, and households in mobilization and participatory, monitoring of project activities.


Putting in place, reviving or strengthening water user committees for the purpose of sustainability of water and sanitation facilities.


Promote behavioral change and community based hygiene through strategic hygiene education, regular dialogue with different community members and income improvement campaigns. This is done through village health committees, who we train and equip with basic knowledge on water, hygiene and sanitation.
