Clean water Kenya
The well that moved the market
When a borehole arrived in Lodwar's outer quarter, the vegetable traders moved with it. Amina Akiru explains what changed and what got harder.
Clean water In planning Zambia Since 2026
North-Western boreholes
Ninety boreholes planned for health facilities and schools, contracts signed, drilling starts March 2026.
Ninety water points are planned at schools and rural health posts, selected with the provincial water utility from a shared map of dry communities. Contracts are signed; rigs arrive in March 2026.
Because this program has not started delivering, its indicator table shows commitments, not results. We publish planned figures with the same care as results so that next year's report can be checked against this page.
- Commission ninety boreholes at schools and health posts
- Give 3,200 first-phase households a water point within one kilometre
- Agree maintenance responsibility with the provincial utility before the first rig arrives
- Publish drilling progress every quarter, including delayed sites
Latest reported values against this year's targets. A value below target stays visible — it is never rounded up or hidden.
| Indicator | Value | Target | Share |
|---|---|---|---|
| Water points committed | 90 | 90 | |
| Households in first phase | 3,200 | 3,200 | |
| Sites with signed maintenance agreements | 90 | 90 |
This program is completed — its final year budget was folded into the annual report and no open budget remains.
What the budget covers
This program is in planning. $340,000 is committed for 2026 and none of it is spent until drilling starts.
