Wasser, Hygiene und Sanitärprogramm (PEHAT) über NRO As a result of the economic decline and the associated unavailability of funding for the expansion and maintenance of relevant infrastructure, the drinking water and sanitation supply of the Burundian population has deteriorated significantly. This is also evident in the increased incidence of cholera epidemics. Effects of climate change further aggravate the situation. Against this background, the objective of the Water, Hygiene and Sanitation Program through NGOs is to contribute to the provision of hygienically safe drinking water and adequate sanitation infrastructure to the rural and urban population in up to eight municipalities in the provinces of Muyinga and Gitega. The recipient and executing agency is the non-governmental organization (NGO) International Rescue Committee Inc. (IRC), which is implementing the measures in cooperation with its partner Care. Measures are being implemented for villages, schools and health centers in the areas of (i) drinking water supply (e.g. rehabilitation and new construction of water points and water supply systems), (ii) sanitation (e.g. rehabilitation and new construction of latrines) and (iii) operation and sensitization (e.g. strengthening and formation of user committees, hygiene sensitization). The FC grant for the measures amounts to EUR 5 million. &lt;![CDATA[Eau, hygiène et assainissement (PEHAT) par le biais d&apos;ONG]]&gt; In Folge des wirtschaftlichen Niedergangs und damit einhergehenden nicht verfügbaren Finanzierungsmitteln zum Ausbau und der Instandhaltung relevanter Infrastruktur, hat sich die Trinkwasser- und Sanitärversorgung der burundischen Bevölkerung deutlich verschlechtert. Dies wird auch durch vermehrt auftretende Choleraepidemien deutlich. Auswirkungen des Klimawandels verschärfen die Situation weiter. Vor diesem Hintergrund ist das Ziel des Wasser-, Hygiene- und Sanitärprogramms über NRO ein Beitrag zur Versorgung der ländlichen und städtischen Bevölkerung in bis zu acht Kommunen in den Provinzen Muyinga und Gitega mit hygienisch unbedenklichem Trinkwasser und angemessener Sanitärinfrastruktur. Empfänger und Träger ist die Nichtregierungsorganisation (NRO) International Rescue Committee Inc. (IRC), die die Maßnahmen in Zusammenarbeit mit ihrem Partner Care durchführt. Durchgeführt werden Maßnahmenpakete für Dörfer, Schulen und Gesundheitszentren in den Bereichen (i) Trinkwasserversorgung (z.B. Rehabilitierung und Neubau von Wasserstellen und Wasserversorgungssystemen), (ii) Sanitärversorgung (z.B. Rehabilitierung und Neubau von Lat-rinen) sowie (iii) Betrieb und Sensibilisierung (z.B. Stärkung und Bildung von Nutzerkomitees, Hygienesensibilisierung). Der FZ-Zuschuss zu den Maßnahmen beträgt 5 Mio. EUR.
