Published purpose

Water shortages affect health, hygiene, education and livelihood activities. Water, sanitation and hygiene conditions are a challenge throughout the country, but particularly so in southern Zimbabwe. The project aims to save lives and reduce the risk of widespread disease by improving access to sufficient and safe water for 16,000 persons in three districts in Matabeleleland, southern Zimbabwe. To ensure engagement of the community in this endeavour, Oxfam supports the re-activation of community-based Water Management Committees in these areas.
