Introduction
The County Government of Homa Bay has implemented the Nduga
Rain Water Harvesting project in West Karachuonyo Ward of North Karachuonyo
Sub-County. This initiative aims to provide a sustainable water supply solution
for households in the area through rainwater harvesting infrastructure.
Economic Benefit
Rainwater
harvesting is a key intervention in regions facing water scarcity and
unreliable rainfall patterns. The Nduga project will capture and store rainwater, ensuring communities can access clean water
for domestic use even during dry spells. This renewable source reduces reliance
on distant water points and boreholes. Access
to water unlocks numerous socioeconomic benefits by reducing the time and
health burdens of water scarcity.
Citizen Benefit
For
the residents of West Karachuonyo Ward, the project represents improved water
security and resilience to climate change impacts. Harvested rainwater at
homesteads provides the convenience of readily available safe water for
drinking, cooking, sanitation and supplemental irrigation.
