Drinking water supply and implementation of a public service delegation
Tanandava-Madagascar
The rural commune of Tanandava Station is located in the southwest of Madagascar in the Atsimo-Andrefana region. Although this commune is located on the banks of the Mangoky River, access to drinking water is lacking in this locality because the majority of the population uses and consumes unhealthy water from wells, particularly during the rainy season. The population is therefore prone to waterborne diseases, the leading cause of death in the world. Pregnant women and children are the most vulnerable to this situation.
Goal
To ensure access to adequate drinking water, sanitation and hygiene services under equitable conditions for the inhabitants of Tanandava.
- Construction of a drinking water distribution network with a borehole with a solar pumping system, rehabilitation of a water tower and construction of a second one
- Establishment of private and social connections, a key in the sustainability of the networks
- Social marketing and sensitization of the population on the use of drinking water and hygiene conditions
- Training and support of manager for the management and maintenance of networks
