Chad - Semi-urban and rural drinking water supply and sanitation programme in eleven regions - Phase 1 — Chad

Overview

The Semi-urban and Rural Drinking Water Supply and Sanitation Programme (PAEPA SU-MR) in Chad concerns Eleven Regions (Borkou, Ennedi, Tibesti, Mayo-Kebbi, Tanjile, Logone Oriental, Logone Occidental, Mandoul, Moyen-Chari, Salamat and Sila). The programme stems from the Kigali Action Plan (KAP) initiative adopted by African Union Heads of State and Government to assist the member countries that failed to achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) in the water and sanitation sector. At the 2015 deadline, Chad did not attain most of the Millennium Development Goal (MDG) targets. This Phase I covers five priority regions with a water access rate of less than 30% in 2018. These regions include Borkou (WAR: 19%, population: 120 104), Ennedi (WAR: 8%, population: 77 795), Tibesti (WAR: 5%, population: 32 704), Logone Oriental (WAR: 27%, population: 1 026 242) and Logone Occidental (WAR: 16%, population: 907 338). PAEPA SU-MR Phase 1 will cost UA 16.67 million, net of taxes and custom duties. The project primarily contributes to climate adaptation results. As such, 50% of the total approved by the Bank amount is attributed as climate finance, of which 4.35 million USD is dedicated to adaptation.
