A community water supply succeeds when its leadership is accountable and responsive to its customers.
Tremendous efforts have gone towards capacity building project management teams, but there is still a
bigger gap that is yet to be filled. WaterCredit initiatives take proven microfinance
principles and apply
them to the water and sanitation sector. One of the outcomes on the projects has been better project
governance bearing in mind the greater responsibility of servicing the credit. The seven water projects
done under this program has come out exceptionally good in managing the affairs of the projects leading
to efficiency and sustainability . Changing from run down supplies to profit making is quite encouraging
and something to be emulated. The water sector reform in Kenya leveraged this initiative after the water
act 2002 streamlined the community management water supply systems after there has been no proper
regulation for a long time.
