Project Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nLed by Flamingo Lakes Conservation Network (FlamingoNet), this 24-month initiative aims to enhance access to \nclean, affordable water in Nakuru\u2019s informal settlements\u2014\nKaptembwa and Rhonda. With a budget of KES 5.75 million, the project promotes climate-resilient, inclusive water \nmanagement, aligned with Nakuru County\u2019s development \nplans and SDG 6 (Clean Water & Sanitation)\n

The Problem<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nNakuru faces a 40,000-liter daily water supply deficit, \nworsened by aging infrastructure, illegal connections, and \nunreliable service. Only 6% of residents in Kaptembwa and \nRhonda have household water connections, while the rest \nrely on costly and unsafe communal sources. This leads to \npublic health risks, gender-based vulnerabilities, and \neducational disruption for children tasked with fetching \nwater.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Project Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

A problem which comes as a result of Wote Municipality in Makueni County generating nearly 18\ntonnes of solid waste every day, much of it non-biodegra-\ndable plastics and glass. Yet, there is no proper system in\nplace to sort, recycle, or safely dispose of this waste. This\nleads to pollution, disease, and lost economic opportuni-\nties\u2014especially for women and youth who are often left\nout of environmental and economic solutions.<\/p>\n

The Aproach<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nThe Jimbo Taka Project, led by Jumuisha Initiative CBO, \naims to empower 200 women and youthin Wote by training them in waste collection, sorting, and creative recycling. By turning waste like glass and plastic into marketable products, we are tackling environmental pollution while \ncreating jobs and incomefor the community.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Project Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nThe project, led by Emali Dedicated Children\u2019s Agency \n(EDCA), aims to improve access to safe, affordable drinking water in Emali town, Makueni County. It targets informal settlements and promotes youth and women empowerment through sustainable water management. Running for 18 months with a budget of KES 4.77 million, it \nsupports SDG 6 (Clean Water & Sanitation) and SDG 13 \n(Climate Action)\n

The Problem<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nAccess to clean water in Emali is limited and costly, forcing \nfamilies\u2014especially women and youth\u2014to rely on informal, \nunreliable sources like boreholes and seasonal rivers. These \nconditions endanger public health and offer few opportunities for decent work. Women and youth are underrepresented in water governance structures, limiting their ability to \ninfluence sustainable solutions\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Project Overview<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nSimba Kogelo Water Development Group is implementing \na 30-month projectin Nyalenda B, Kisumu City, aiming to \nimprove Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) services \nfor underserved populations. With a budget of KES 4.58 \nmillion, the initiative promotes inclusive service delivery \nthrough infrastructure upgrades, social enterprise, climate \nadaptation, and enhanced governance\u2014especially for women, youth, and marginalized communities.\n

The Problem<\/strong><\/p>\n

\nNyalenda B is a low-income informal settlement where residents face poor access to clean water, inadequate sanitation, and systemic exclusion from decision-making. Dilapidated infrastructure, theft, and high poverty levels discourage investment from service providers. This has left \nvulnerable populations\u2014especially women and youth\u2014\nstruggling to access basic WASH services, worsening \nhealth risks and inequality.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"give_campaign_id":0,"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-513","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"campaignId":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/flamingonet.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/513","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/flamingonet.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/flamingonet.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flamingonet.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flamingonet.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=513"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/flamingonet.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/513\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":521,"href":"https:\/\/flamingonet.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/513\/revisions\/521"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/flamingonet.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=513"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
