Titre : Crisis Support for Solid Waste, Water Supply and Sewage Institutions in Aden and Mukalla Cities

Pays : Yemen

Durée : December 2018 — May 2021

Présentation
Violence and instability have affected almost all Yemeni governorates, making it more difficult to access to basic services such as water, sanitation and waste management. State institutions lack revenues and are challenged to pay salaries and running costs, while equipment and infrastructure deteriorates. Varying degrees of water availability, leakage, and irregular collection of waste contribute to the spread of serious diseases such as dengue fever, typhoid, ophthalmia, malaria and cholera.

This project helps responsible institutions to provide essential services in two major cities, to reduce epidemics, improve security and enable the people of Yemen to experience the advantages of peace. Project activities are expected to improve the quality of life by reducing water-related diseases ; contribute to a stronger economy by increasing productivity ; and, contribute to stability by allowing communities to enjoy the benefits of peace.
