Notes

Abstract:
In Africa, like in other regions, there are large, well-experienced international, regional and national NGOs in the Water delivery, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) field, yet there is a number of local/country CBOs and NGOs which lack the necessary technical capacity to deliver positive contributions to solving WASH challenges. Local NGOs/CBOs in Africa still require significant support and technical assistance to improve their capabilities in sustainable, state-of-the art, locally tailored WASH approaches. To address this need, USAID will invest in activities to help fill the significant knowledge and capacity gap among African local/national NGOs and CBOs working in the WASH sector. Given the modest level of resources of the present program, we will develop activities that will build on existing efforts ongoing in the region.
