Project Detail |
The initiative is implemented by the Italian NGO Salute e Sviluppo (SeS). The action consists in the creation of a water distribution system that meets the demand of clean water for the beneficiaries of the action. In addition to this, the initiative aims to create a number of public latrines in order to respond to the actual sanitation emergency of the area, affected by an epidemic of cholera in Kenya in February 2015. Specifically, the project will create a pumping station from Lake Victoria, a treatment plant, a 6 kilometres pipeline, 7 kiosks for water distribution, 5 standpipes inside 5 schools and 28 latrines. The broad range of institutional and popular participation that the initiative has had so far, will ensure a local ownership. Moreover, the joint use of Ozone for depuration, a Slow Sand Filter and Solar Energy, will provide the initiative with a innovative value and a high replicability.
