Water, Sanitation and Health (WASH)

Water sanitation and hygiene (WASH) are critical to health, survival, and development. Many countries lack adequate and safe water for their growing population. According to UNICEF “2.2 billion people worldwide lack access to safe drinking water; more than half of the global population does not have access to safe sanitation, with almost a billion people practicing open defecation; and over three billion people with no access to handwashing facilities with soap”.  CDCI works with agencies globally to provide solutions to mitigate the WASH challenges faced by communities. Our services include:

• Development and implementation of community-based WASH management models – this entails feasibility studies and the development of appropriate management models befitting the specific community situations and underlying challenges, complete with appropriate financing and operation models.
• Development of appropriate WASH investment plans models
• Billing Management and tariff development
• Sourcing and implementation of appropriate billing management systems differentiated by community needs
• Private sector development including public-private partnerships
