The EMPOWERWASH-AFRICA programme was launched by the African Water and Sanitation Association (AAEA) with the support of the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation. This project aims to improve Water, Hygiene and Sanitation (WASH) systems in rural communes, targeting 30 communes in six countries (Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Ethiopia, Ghana, Malawi and Uganda). The first phase lasted one year from August 2023 to October 2024. In order to increase the impact of the program, AAEA drew inspiration from Benin’s successful management models by organizing a Benchmarking mission from July 9 to 13, 2024 in Cotonou and the commune of Kpomassè.

This learning note presents the results of the benchmarking mission carried out in Benin. As part of this study, the aim is to analyze the management model of drinking water supply services in rural areas in Benin. Since 2017, the model in Benin has been organized around the National Agency for Rural Drinking Water Supply (ANAEPMR) which is responsible for planning, infrastructure management and the delegation of services to private operators using leasing contracts. This centralization allows for rigorous and consistent monitoring of service standards. However, it faces constraints such as resistance to change from mayors and rural communities, communication difficulties during water cuts, and inadequacies in infrastructure maintenance. In this learning note, AAEA will analyze the Strengths, Weaknesses, Threats and Opportunities of Benin’s rural drinking water supply model.

The Handwashing Handbook A guide for developing a hygiene promotion program...The Handwashing Handbook lays out the experiences of this global partnership in a practical guide. While countries are still optimizing and experimenting with approaches, it is important to disseminate what is currently known. This way others can begin designing programs and contributing to the global body of knowledge and experience in the fight against child mortality. This guide is for staff in governments and development organizations charged with carrying out handwashing programs. Decision makers in ministries and funding agencies will also find assistance in this book for designing policies and programs to improve public health. The approach to large-scale handwashing promotion covers the following components: Laying the Foundation for a National Handwashing Program To be successful, handwashing programs must address a recognized health need and have the support of key stakeholders. Government, industry, and donors can all offer unique resources which are necessary to ensure the success of a large-scale program. Conducting a situation assessment and, where needed, making the case for handwashing on topics ranging from costeffectiveness to health impact will give the handwashing program a solid foundation. Understanding the Consumer In order to change long-held habits related to behaviors such as handwashing, a firm understanding of the factors the drive and facilitate behaviors in target consumers must be established. This means putting the needs of the target audience – primarily mothers and caretakers of children under five years old as well as school-aged children – at the center and having their perspective determine the nature and scope of all promotion activities. Carrying out consumer research provides a baseline for measurement and understanding of the target audience by answering four broad questions: What are the risk practices? Who carries out the risk practices? What drivers, habits, and/or environmental factors can change behavior? How do people communicate? Program Implementation The results of consumer research drive program implementation including which environmental factors related to handwashing need to be addressed, what is the most appropriate and appealing way to promote handwashing, and what is best mix of communication channels to reach the target audience. Implementation also includes the careful monitoring of the program and periodic evaluation and adjustment. Program Organization When partners from different backgrounds and sectors are not accustomed to working together, establishing common aims and trust takes time and effort. Placing a program coordinator in a trusted organization is an effective approach to steering diverse partners towards a common objective. Throughout the handbook, references, case study information, and tools are provided to support handwashing programs. Users are encouraged to combine their creativity with existing knowledge in order to innovate and optimize approaches to large-scale handwashing promotionAAEAPRÉSENTATION ET ANALYSE DU MODÈLE DE DELIVRANCE DES SERVICES D’APPROVISIONNEMENT EN EAU POTABLE EN MILIEU RURAL AU RWANDAAAEAPRÉSENTATION ET ANALYSE DU MODÈLE DE DELIVRANCE DES SERVICES D’APPROVISIONNEMENT...
