Since the early 1990s, DW has implemented a series of successful
programmes in the shanty towns to improve access to basic services. To
date, DW has built 220 water standpipes, which bring clean and
affordable water to around 120,000 people. To address the sanitation
problem, DW has helped build close to 10,000 latrines, and pioneered
solutions for solid waste removal. The central strategy is to build
partnerships of the stakeholders in a programme and encourage
collaboration and trust between them. Published by One World Action & DW.
