Lake Victoria and the Basin

• Lake Victoria and its basin covers an area of 193,000km²• Average population is over 40 million

• The lake basin is endowed with rich natural resources and other opportunities which need to be exploited sustainably

• However, challenges are evident and are mainly linked to a number of interrelated problems such as: – rapid population growth and poverty– land degradation and declining agricultural productivity – Declining water quality and Ill-health

…… which must be addressed concurrently to achieve sustainable development.

Page 21: WATSAN, SWM & PH ROUNDTABLE WATSAN, SWM & PH ROUNDTABLE 3 RD LVB DONORS’ CONFERENCE By: Dr. Doreen A.M Othero On behalf of the WATSAN, SWM & PH Team Lake.

1. Up-Scaling LVWATSAN

Introduction• LVWATSAN Phase I launched in 2004• Aim was to contribute to the achievement of MDGs for water

and sanitation in secondary towns within the LVB• Was successfully implemented in 10 secondary towns in Ke,

Ug and Tz.• LVWATSAN II was conceived after Rwanda and Burundi

joined the EAC • Currently being implemented in 15 towns – 3 focal towns for

each of the five Partner States of the EAC• A gap still exists – there are 200 – 300 secondary towns in

the basin, only 25 have been reached

Page 22: WATSAN, SWM & PH ROUNDTABLE WATSAN, SWM & PH ROUNDTABLE 3 RD LVB DONORS’ CONFERENCE By: Dr. Doreen A.M Othero On behalf of the WATSAN, SWM & PH Team Lake.

3. Population, Health and Environment

Introduction• Island inhabitants constitute a major category of disempowered

communities in the Lake Victoria

• The meagre services available are implemented using vertical approaches hence compromising efficiency

• The proposed PHE project will integrate health and environmental conservation initiatives in order to seek synergistic successes for greater conservation and human welfare outcomes than single-sector approaches.

Goal• To promote integrated population, health, safe water, sanitation

and environmental conservation approaches on the islands of Lake Victoria

Page 28: WATSAN, SWM & PH ROUNDTABLE WATSAN, SWM & PH ROUNDTABLE 3 RD LVB DONORS’ CONFERENCE By: Dr. Doreen A.M Othero On behalf of the WATSAN, SWM & PH Team Lake.

3. Population, Health and Environment cont…

Objectives• Facilitate a shared definition and understanding

among stakeholders

• Enhance capacity of communities to sustainabily manage ecosystem resources to improve livelihoods and wellbeing

• Improve reproductive health, maternal, neonatal and child health of island inhabitants

• Promote advocacy and policy interactions for integrated PHE approaches

4. Trans-boundary water supply and sanitation program in LVB

Introduction• Enhanced WATSAN management around Lake Victoria

offers one of the incentives for stimulating economic growth and improving the livelihoods and health of communities in the basin.

• A trans-boundary WATSAN Program would fill the gap between the low WATSAN services supplied and the high demand while simultaneously meeting the MDG targets.

Goal• To meet MDG targets in water and sanitation for selected

transboundary towns in the five Partner States and by so doing promote EAC integration

Page 31: WATSAN, SWM & PH ROUNDTABLE WATSAN, SWM & PH ROUNDTABLE 3 RD LVB DONORS’ CONFERENCE By: Dr. Doreen A.M Othero On behalf of the WATSAN, SWM & PH Team Lake.
