Training workshop in Burundi

Le 17 août, Athena Infonomics a donné le coup d'envoi d'un atelier de formation des formateurs de deux jours qui a rassemblé des professionnels de l'eau et de l'assainissement de tout le Burundi pour étudier des exemples concrets d'assainissement inclusif à l'échelle de la ville (CWIS) et divers modèles de services, et discuter des cas d'utilisation pour les régulateurs, les fournisseurs de services publics, les ministères et d'autres parties prenantes. Cet atelier a présenté aux participants EquiServe, un outil analytique puissant conçu pour aider les dirigeants du secteur public et les acteurs du développement à concevoir des modèles de services créatifs qui font progresser les services d'assainissement équitables, sûrs et durables dans les villes. Ces efforts font partie d'un plan d'extension et d'institutionnalisation développé avec l'Association des régulateurs de l'eau et de l'assainissement de l'Afrique orientale et australe (ESAWAS).
