This paper describes the methodology used for, and findings of, the assessment of sustainability of rural water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) interventions under Rwanda WASH Project implemented by the Government of Rwanda with support from the Government of the Netherlands and UNICEF during 2009-14. The methodology involved development of the assessment tools, household surveys, focus group discussions, interviews with key informants and audit of WASH infrastructure. The sustainability of the project was assessed against 22 indicators grouped under five categories i.e. institutional, social, financial, technical and sanitation and hygiene. The overall sustainability score for the project (four districts) averaged 86% in 2014, showing a significant increase when compared with the corresponding scores of 70% in 2011 and 75% in 2013. The experiences of Rwanda WASH project demonstrate that regular sustainability assessments, though requiring significant financial resources and efforts, contribute to a considerable improvement in the sustainability of WASH interventions.
“I want to do a water project but I don’t know where to start!” This is a common challenge. Doing a community needs assessment is a crucial piece to planning successful projects but can often seem like a daunting task. Join us for a great conversation and fun exercise in doing a community assessment in water and sanitation, and go back to your district with a better understanding of community assessment and planning tools.
