Kiwanjani Village, Kenya

Kiwanjani is our seventh village in which GHNI has started the project of transformation. The villagers of Kiwanjani are a mix of tribes; the village is more like a rural-urban setup where the rich and the poor live in the same area due to immigration from urban areas to rural ones.

Residents from Mawa Village are coming off the huge success of bringing a water source into their community for the first time in partnership with GHNI. However, this month the training team was reminded that pressing needs remain glaringly visible among Mawa families.

Ajij* has been a key figure in the Transformational Community Development (TCD) Water Committee since the beginning of the ambitious water project that commenced in 2019 in Mawa Village. Ajij worked with the GHNI training team and his fellow community members until, against all odds, they finally succeeded at bringing fresh water into Mawa Village after decades of difficulty.

The Mawa Village has never had access to water in their village before.  For decades, they have had to either hike 30 minutes to a spring to do their washing or gather water for cooking.  During dry times, they have had to purchase water from outside. This has led to obvious hygiene-related problems, and also economic problems.
