Water access for resilient communities

Safe, easy-to-reach water points for homes and schools across Kibera.

Clean water is scarce in Kibera. Collecting it takes time and effort, and unsafe water spreads disease.

What we do

Maji Mtaani installs safe, accessible water points across the settlement, serving both households and schools. Community campaigns and local partners spread the word about safe water and good hygiene.

Why it matters

  • Better hygiene and fewer waterborne diseases
  • Less time and effort spent collecting water
  • Communities better prepared for climate-related water shortages

Results so far

Maji Mtaani has reached more than 5,000 residents. At Ushirika School, hygiene and attendance have both improved.
