Exploring Kenya’s Small-Scale Water Services for a More Sustainable Future
Kenya faces significant challenges in providing safe drinking water, especially in low-income and peri-urban areas. This article assesses institutional and organizational frameworks constraints to the performance of communally-owned small-scale water service producers (SSSPs), which significantly contribute to safe drinking water access in underserved and unserved areas. The study employs a PESTEL analysis based on in-depth interviews to identify…
Accelerating Safe Water and Sanitation Access in Urban Periphery and Low-Income Areas: The Case of Kenya
Achieving universal water and sanitation access by 2030 - Kenya’s Vision 2030 and Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6, remains challenging for Kenya, especially in urban low-income and periphery areas. Only 23% of low-income are served by licensed utilities. Most are served by small-scale water service producers (SSSPs), who struggle to produce safe water and sanitation despite wide coverage, posing significant public health and other risks. Aim…
Leaving No One Behind: Prospects for User-Owned Urban Water Utilities in Kenya
Achieving universal access to basic services and safe and affordable water and sanitation to all by 2030, as targeted in Sustainable Development Goals 1 and 6, is of utmost importance in improving people’s well-being. In Kenya, this means fulfilling a significant water services gap. This study analyzed the viability of user-owned urban water utilities there from managers’ perspectives. It found that the high performance of the few licensed privat…
Groundwater Option in Raw Water Source Selection and Related Policy Changes in Finland
Since the late 1800s, the source selection – surface water or groundwater – for urban water supply has faced several policy changes in Finland. First, groundwater was favored. In 1920, driven by cost and reliability issues, one major city turned to surface water which was a sourcing determination for the country. After WWII, groundwater gradually gained preference motivated by reliability, including managed aquifer recharge since 1970. Instead of…
A Case for Strong Municipal Governance: The Water Supply of Pretoria 1855–1935
The city of Pretoria, South Africa, was found at an artesian water source, exceptional in quality and quantity – its only source from 1855 until 1935. Despite being supplied so abundantly, Pretoria suffered the same problems with water supply and sanitation that were evident elsewhere in South Africa. This was due to deficiencies in municipal government. When the town was founded, it was managed by a magistrate, appointed by and reporting to the …
Private initiatives in Finland and South Africa: Proposals for waterworks by von Nottbeck and Marks
Water and the City
The growth and development of urban spaces in all parts of the world is an outstanding feature of modern history. Apart from being notable growth generators of economies, cities have also been localities where the poorest of the poor congregate seeking the opportunity to make a living. Another outstanding feature of cities has been the growth and development of their comprehensive water infrastructure. The theme included eleven sessions with 37 p…
Many Ps Needed for Sustainable Water Services: Expansion of the Scope of Public–Private Partnerships
This research note discusses the commonly used concept of public-private partnerships (PPPs) promoted particularly by international financial bodies in water and sanitation services during the past few years. The article argues that the scope of PPPs, which now includes only private operators, should be expanded. The article proposes a related list of policies, principles, and practices with selected priorities for viable and sustainable water an…
A short comparative history of wells and toilets in South Africa and Finland
This paper describes the technological development of wells and toilets and the cultural practices related to them in two countries, South Africa and Finland, from the Middle Ages to modern times. Wells and toilets have always been linked to the well-being of humans and they still are the most common technical systems in the service of mankind. They are simple to build, but if they are constructed improperly or stop functioning properly, they may…
