Potable Water Management Programme (PWMP) in Upper Egypt – Phase 1
Egypt is a water scarce country and has critical needs in better managing water resources and reducing water losses as well as water consumption. Switzerland can share its know-how in the water sector. This programme contributes to equitable access to safely managed water to deprived and informal settlement areas in the economically disadvantaged governorate of Aswan in Upper Egypt and to improved potable water management and service provision in Aswan Water & Sanitation Company (AWSC).

Contexte |
Existing infrastructure and service provision are not able to cope with the increased water demand. High water losses resulting from deteriorated water networks and inefficient administrative processes, reduce to a great extent the revenues of the water companies, which leads to poor maintenance of the infrastructure and hence to a poor service provision. The state policies and strategies for a coherent development of the water sector need to improve, in order to enhance the water resource management and to ensure a quality, reliable and affordable water and wastewater service provision. |
Objectifs | To contribute to an effective, efficient and reliable service provision of potable water by Aswan Water and Sanitation Company (AWSC), which will lead to sustainable and equitable access to potable water. |
