AO-Water Sector Institutional Dvlp operates in Angola.
The objective of the Water Sector Institutional Development Project for Angola is to strengthen the institutional capacity and efficiency of agencies in the water sector to improve access and reliability of water service delivery. There are four components to the project. The first component is the development of institutions in the water supply and sanitation sub-sector. The objective of this component is to strengthen the institutional framework for the water supply sub-sector at both the central and regional levels. The second component is the water resources management. The objective of this component is to support the strengthening of the institutional framework for the water resources management sub-sector. The third component is the rehabilitation of water supply systems. The objective of this component is to support the physical rehabilitation of selected urban water supply systems due to the critical need to reverse many years of inadequate investments and maintenance. This objective will be achieved through two sub-components: (1) the construction of approximately 240 kilometers of water supply networks and about 72,000 domestic house connections; and (2) the preparation of technical cadastre and implementation of an information system. Finally, the fourth component is the capacity building and change management. The overall objective of this component is to strengthen the ability of government to improve efficiency of water supply in Angola by engaging stakeholders, managing and communicating change, and improving the abilities of individuals to play their parts, especially at management but also at technical levels.
