Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>The Board of Directors of the African Development Fund has approved a $101 million loan to finance the Rwanda Sustainable and Resilient Water and Sanitation Program \u2013 a policy-based operation to support Rwanda\u2019s water and sanitation sector.<\/p>\n

The program aims to improve water and sanitation governance and access to basic water supply and sanitation services. It will also strengthen legal, policy, institutional and regulatory frameworks for delivering basic water supply and sanitation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis program will benefit more than 13.2 million people in Rwanda, providing better and long-lasting access to safe water and sanitation services. It will also support the management of water resources, reforming policies and enhancing governance in the sector,\u201d Osward Chanda, the Bank\u2019s Director for Water Development and Sanitation, said at the Board meeting.<\/p>\n

Rwanda\u2019s Ministries of Finance and Economic Planning, Infrastructure and Environment, Water and Sanitation Corporation Limited, Rwanda Water Resources Board, and the Rwanda Utilities Regulatory Authority will implement the Rwanda Sustainable and Resilient Water and Sanitation Program starting this year through 2026.<\/p>\n

The Rwanda Sustainable and Resilient Water and Sanitation Program is the latest infrastructure project supported by the Bank via the Water Development and Sanitation Department. The Bank aims to accelerate Rwanda\u2019s long-term development aspiration of becoming a middle-income economy by 2035, as outlined in its Vision 2050.<\/p>\n

The program also aligns with the Bank\u2019s Country Strategy 2022-2026 for Rwanda and the Bank\u2019s Ten-Year Strategy (2013 \u2013 2022, extended to June 2023) for inclusive growth and a gradual transition to green growth. It will contribute to three of the Bank\u2019s priority areas, also known as the High 5s: Improve the Quality of Life for the People of Africa; Feed Africa, and Industrialize Africa.<\/p>\n
