WEBINAR ON SOLUTIONS AND INNOVATIONS IN THE WASH SECTOR MAJI AFRICA

The article presents the results of the research work in the wash sector of three young Africans, namely: KOTIE SIDIBE of Malian nationality with a Master 2 in geomatics, planning, land management from the University of Social Sciences and Management of Bamako; FOUTAMATA MALEBA COULIBALY of Malian nationality Student in Environmental Engineering at Eni/ABT of Bamako (Mali) and CHARLES TAPALNA of Nigerian nationality is Master in Strategic Studies from the University of Maiduguri
The objective was to analyze the different solutions and innovations in the wash sector in Mali and Nigeria. The methodological approach used by the three researchers in the wash sector presents the different modes of direct data collection (field survey, physical documentation) and indirect collection (online documentary research). The results of his work are as follows:
_ Regarding the research work of KOTIE SIDIBE which is entitled: « CONTRIBUTION OF GIS IN THE MANAGEMENT OF WASTE ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT IN COMMUNE VI OF THE DISTRICT OF BAMAKO »
A total of 274 sites have been geolocated in the eleven (11) districts of Commune VI: Banankabougou (36), Dianéguéla (18), Faladié (32), Magnambougou (34), Missabougou (14), Yirimadio (42), Sokorodji (18), Sogoniko (25), Niamakoro (23), Sénou (23), Airport Zone (9)
As an innovative technological solution, it offers a geographic information system (GIS), an excellent tool to monitor all the actors, distribution routes, the frequency of grow-ups, and on the other hand, a treatment planning (organization of existing treatment actors, creation of new locations for the actors). It also proposes the establishment of legislative texts regulating the field of electrical waste management in Mali
– Regarding the research work of FOUTAMATA MALEBA COULIBALY with the title: « APPROACH TO THE REDUCTION OF NON-REVENUE WATER IN WATER COMPANIES (SOMAPEP/SOMAGEP (Bamako) »
The concession (SOMAPEP-SA) and leasing (SOMAGEP-SA) contracts for the Bamako distribution network should be 81%, but it is around 63%, i.e. 18 points difference. This leads to many losses for SOMAGEP-SA. As solutions, it proposes the modernization of measurement systems (more accurate meters and remotely readable meters)
– Regarding the CHARLES TAPALNA research work, the title is: « ASSESSING THE IMPACT OF WOMEN’S PARTICIPATION IN THE WATER, SANITATION AND HYGIENE COMMITTEE ON SUSTAINABLE WASHING SERVICES AND IMPLEMENTING BEST PRACTICES IN MAIDUGURI, NIGERIA »
As innovative solutions to the challenges faced by women in current practices in Nigeria in terms of water and sanitation, hygiene, and sanitation we have the provision of solar-powered water pumps, mobile water purification units, hygiene promotion at the community level, provision of emergency WASH kits and training/capacity building
This article will build the capacity of young researchers and innovators in the field of water, sanitation and hygiene in Africa.
