MWH Americas, Inc.,
Arcadia, CA 91007AbstractWater For People has been working in Malawi since 2000, helping to provide more than 150,000 people with safe drinking water and/or improved sanitation. As part of a WFP Water Corps Team, Joyce T. Lee recently conducted a Monitoring Study in Malawi. The study involved follow-up research on previously installed water and sanitation projects funded by Water for People including borehole wells, hand-dug shallow wells, Afridev hand pumps, rainwater catchment tanks, community tap stands and pit latrines. The team conducted water committee and user interviews, reviewed operations, data and revenue collection, sanitation and hygiene education. Data were entered into the Water for People database for future site monitoring and follow-up. A complete report from the monitoring study should be available shortly on the Water for People website. During this talk, Joyce shares her experience as a member of the team that conducted the 2007 Monitoring Study in Malawi.
