Rural Water Supply and Sanitation Project in Kyrgyzstan
Major impediments to sustainability
•
•
•
•
•
People are not willing to pay tariff
Drinking water is not a top priority for people
Lack of external assistance (DRWS, loc. Authorities, etc.)
Payment of state taxes (VAT, roads, emergency, social,
etc.)
Lack of management skills of the CDWUU chairperson/
board, accountant.

Rural Water Supply and Sanitation Project in Kyrgyzstan
Conclusions and recommendations
•
Project level
Sometimes communities are pushed to join the project just
for political reasons - Only communities which give priority
to clean water should be included in the project
•
Public level
Communities do not link health problems to water quality -
More public information and awareness raising thru all
possible channels – media, educational (targeting all age
groups)
Rural Water Supply and Sanitation Project in Kyrgyzstan
Conclusions and recommendations
Community level
The impact assessment of the project on communities is quite
encouraging, but still sustainability is an issue –
CDWUUs shall take initiative to
•
Act as a partner to health and sanitation bodies in rising
awareness about influence of water quality on community’s
health;
•
Reinforce peoples’ awareness of community ownership over the
community water supply
•
Formulate expectations regarding community water supply
system (like household connections, etc.)
•
Obtain community’s commitment to support WSS
construction
and maintenance
•
Continue capacity building
Rural Water Supply and Sanitation Project in Kyrgyzstan
Conclusions and recommendations
Institutional level
• The legislation for drinking water in the the rural areas is still weak
• The role of the Department is still unclear and risks its abolition
after completion of the project in year 2007
• The Department does not have enough capacity (both human and
financial) to support several hundreds of newly created CDWUUs
• CDWUUs lack state support like temporarily tax vacancies, etc.
• The Department is not enough involved in learning and analysing
experience of CDWUUs, as well as disseminating successful
experience
The Kyrgyz Government should seriously pay
attention to the elaboration of a rural water
sector strategy
Thanks for the attention
