Potable Water Management Programme in Upper Egypt – Phase 1

Bringing safe drinking water to around 80’000 inhabitants of deprived neighborhoods in Aswan, making them aware of the value of safe water, and supporting the Aswan Water and Sanitation Company (AWSC) in improving its services to its customers – these were the three main outcomes of Phase 1 of the Potable Water Management Programme in Upper Egypt (PWMP). Through this mix of organizational development, community outreach and infrastructure development the Programme contributes to an improved economic development of these neighborhoods.
