When the World Bank financed BKS technical assistance team arrived at the Water and Sewerage Authority of Lesotho (WASA) in 1994 it was evident that the organisation was facing three main obstacles to the sustainability of the organisation:
• absence of a proper planning function;
• financial frailty; and
• limited institutional capacity.
This paper illustrates the problems, discusses how solutions have been approached and the extent to which
strategies have been successful.
