Description
CATALYSING SUSTAINABLE WATER SECURITY IN EASTERN AFRICA THROUGH SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY & INNOVATION
The study found some potential and on-going STI interventions undertaken in the
region particularly for enhancing water provision (supply, treatment, quality, and
access), sanitation, and agricultural services.
Some of the interventions which include real-time monitoring of water quality, quantity, and system performance and digitalization of water systems have been undertaken by private institutions, NGOs, government/public sectors and through public-private initiatives.
The study showed that smart technologies such as prepaid water meters, advanced metering systems, water ATMs and mobile money payments widely adopted in Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, and Tanzania have significantly reduced the non-revenue water, improved technical operation and maintenance, reduced maintenance costs by promoting lean and effective staff establishment, increased revenue collection, and improved water resource management.
