Published purpose

The goal of the project is to increase access to sustainable water and sanitation services in northern Ghana. This in turn increases the availability and consumption of sustainable, locally managed, potable water. Drinkable water supply and sanitation services are expected to be established in up to 20 small towns in the Northern Region of Ghana. NORST implementation is being led by the Government of Ghana, with technical assistance provided by Cowater International Inc. Expected Outcomes: 1) The number of people using and benefiting from reliable potable water and sanitation is expected to increase; 2) stakeholders at regional, district, and sub-district levels effectively fulfill their respective roles in delivering potable water and sanitation services; and 3) water supply and sanitation installations adequately supply communities.
