Water Tank Roll-out

Amathole

Background

In an attempt to tackle the water challenges in the District, Amathole District Municipality (ADM) together with Amathole Economic Development Agency (ASPIRE), started a program to address the water challenge that the district is facing.

The initiative started in July 2023 and has delivered +- 400 water tanks across all six Local Municipality. ASPIRE in collaboration with ADM will be rolling out water tanks as interim stop-gap measures to supply water to Local Municipalities and their villages.

This process emanated from the realization of needy areas across the district that do not have access to basic services with specific reference to the provision of water.

The Project Impact

The water tanks and stands were constructed in the ADM villages, using local individuals, and also created employment for +- 252 individuals, 78 were female employees. These employees were to assist with the collection of water.

The communities and the villagers are the direct beneficiaries of the project with full access to drinking water.
