Community perceived impacts of watsan interventions
conference contribution
posted on 2018-02-12, 15:11 authored by John Kelleher, Elias ChilwanaWaterAid Zambia has worked in partnership with the
Monze District Department of Health since 1995, supporting
the work of the Department’s Environmental Health
Technologists (EHTs) in extending access to safe water,
sanitation and improved hygiene for rural communities in
Monze District, Southern Province.
A participatory evaluation of this work, facilitated by
local and international consultants, was carried out in
October - November 2000. One of the key objectives of the
evaluation was to examine, from the community’s
perspective, the impacts of the water supply, hygiene and
sanitation promotion programme supported by WaterAid
and implemented by the Department of Health. This was
the first participatory evaluation carried out in the district
since the beginning of the programme although two, more
conventional, evaluations had previously been conducted
(1994 and 1997). In excess of 400 community members
were involved in the evaluation as were more than a dozen
field extension staff drawn from a range of government
departments in the four districts in which WaterAid Zambia
operates.
