WASEH Project

The WASEH project aims at providing and improving the quality of drinking water at the household level thereby decreasing incidents of water borne diseases. The project area is characterized by lack of clean drinking water. The rock formation and topography of the area unfairly disadvantages the residents in this aspect and drilled water sources have proven to be too hard for domestic use. The area has no rivers and depends on earth pans and a few boreholes as a source of drinking water. The same water source is also for livestock use. This has resulted in high prevalence of diarrhoeal diseases and high cross infection rates

The provision and improvement of drinking water will be done through adoption of appropriate technologies for rainwater harvesting, provision of piped water from the borehole and establishment of water kiosks. Rehabilitation of water points will also be undertaken to benefit the livestock. A total of 5,000 persons will be targeted. In addition, a water quality intervention at the point-of-use will be implemented to ensure that contamination of drinking water during collection or handling at home is eradicated.

The project will also address household sanitation issue though development and training in establishment and use of latrines.

Point of use Water treatment:

1. The community have recently been trained on safe water management at household level to avoid auto and cross contamination.

2. The community was also provided with free training on the application and use of WaterGuard.

3. Pit latrine artisans are currentlybeing trained on new technologies of making cheap and sustainable pit latrines.

Another idea for my home page's text is notifying visitors about the enhancements I put on my site. For example, I want visitors to sign my guestbook or fill out my survey Form E-mailer to answer questions about my site, my business, or my site's topic.

I might not want a large amount of text on my home page if I want to guide visitors toward my other pages. Instead of text, I can add others' buttons to this first page, and I'll be rewarded for people who click on the buttons. For example, if a visitor signs up for a Visa using the NextCard button on my site, I earn at least $20!

Even if I don't put much text on my home page, it's a good idea to include hidden tools that will help me promote my site, so people other than my friends and family actually see it. For example, I could add meta tags, which are hidden codes that allow search engines to find my site. I could also install stats and a counter so I know how many people are visiting. If not many are visiting, submitting my site to search engines will guide more traffic to my site.
