Sierra Leone Waterpoint Database Presentation of Project and Data
Project Overview • Project led by MoEWR with WSP & UNICEF support • Completed in three months (February to April 2012) • 28,000+ protected, public waterpoints surveyed
The Database • Full dataset now available online: www.SL-wash.org • In-depth information for each of the 28,000+ points • Data allows better planning and fundraising
Database Demo • View waterpoints • Filter by attributes • Show service level • Local analysis • Use satellite data
Results - Overview Five Key Results • Major investments needed & data shows where • Seasonality is a major issue • Breakdown rates too high • Construction should be focused on fewer pump models • Coordination between agencies needs to be improved
Results - Overview Major investments needed Survey shows total points and detailed service gaps • 28,845 points surveyed 18,908 protected & in use 4,148 partially damaged 5,137 broken down • Service gaps often very local Detailed investment planning needed
Results - Overview Coordination Lacking Up to 6+ agencies in same chiefdoms just in last 3 years! Improve coordination to keep overheads low.
Results - Overview Seasonality is a major problem Up to 40% of points provide insufficient water in dry season Better standards for location & construction required Rainy season Dry Season
Results - Overview Breakdown rates are unacceptably high 22% of points built in 2011 already impaired Local ownership & active management shown to improve performance and should be encouraged
Results - Overview Focus Construction on Key Pump Types India Mark (II) and Kardia most popular pump types 64% of handpumps are India Mark (II) Focusing on these key models will economize on training of mechanics and sparepart supply chains
