Kenya suffers from chronic water shortages due to the skewed relationship between limited available resources, population growth and environmental degradation. Women and children are particularly affected.
The objective of the German-Kenyan Programme „Reform of the Water Sector“ is to increase the sustainable access of the urban poor to water and sanitation and to improve the management of water resources. The programme works on the national and regional levels and in selected localities.
The “Promising Practices” series presents development cooperation programs that have implemented elements of a human rights-based approach. The individual publications describe the measures implemented by the project, its impact and lessons learned.
