WaterAid | Ethiopia

In Ethiopia just 22% of people have safe water to drink and only 13% have sanitation.

In Ethiopia, WaterAid works with eight main partners including NGOs and the local government. Ethiopia's water supply coverage is one of the lowest in the world and the country's varied terrain requires several different water solutions, from spring-fed gravity schemes in the mountainous regions to boreholes in the arable plateaus.

WaterAid also strengthens partnerships and networks to help organisations work in a coordinated way to promote good hygiene and sanitation, vital where only 13% of the population have access to a toilet. WaterAid also aims to support communities in assessing the quality of water and sanitation provision in their area, encouraging them to demand more from local service providers.
