Capacity Building Africa (CAP-WASH)

The Cap-WASH program targets Sub-Saharan Africa, specifically Tanzania, Burkina Faso, and Mozambique. The selection of countries for development of the modular training program was based on income levels measured by the GNI as well as governance dimensions such as security and safety.

• Objective 1: Conduct a review of existing networks for African WASH NGOs/CBOs at the regional and/or sub-regional level, as well as resources/platforms created to support them through capacity building and knowledge management services.
• Objective 2: In consultation with the implementers of institutions in the international WASH sector (e.g., WaterAid, UNICEF, World Bank/WSP, WSSCC, and others), identify an appropriate niche for USAID support to African NGO/CBO capacity building and/or knowledge management.
• Objective 3: Implement at least one cost-effective intervention to support African WASH NGOs/CBOs and increase their ability to design and implement sustainable WASH service programs.
