What are the key challenges that WaterAid is likely to face in Swaziland?
One of the key challenges for WaterAid working in Swaziland will be trying to overcome the unequal distribution of water and sanitation coverage between urban and rural areas within the country. As there is an absence of policies and practices in the water and sanitation sector WaterAid will need to influence and support civil society and governmental organisations to develop the capacity and ability to deal with problems relating to water and sanitation. The HIV/AIDS crisis affecting the country will also be a huge challenge for WaterAid as we attempt to influence those working within the water and sanitation sector to reach out to these communities.
