LILONGWE WATER RESOURCE EFFICIENCY PROGRAMME


Medium-term investment programme to optimise available water resources, bridging the gap in water demand in Malawi's fast-growing capital city. The project's main components consist of upgrading a dam that is Lilongwe's primary water source, extending water-treatment works, reducing leakages and improving network management.

The objective of the project is to ensure adequate water availability for the population of Lilongwe
