Transformative change – what the Government has achieved
• Plans to translate the state WASH policy into the local language (Hausa) to increase its awareness and acceptability which will in turn promote wide adoption
• Replication of WaterAid model of small towns & funding the establishment of WCAs (Water Consumer Associations) in 102 small towns in the State
• Upgrading of WASH units into departments in all LGAs
• Increased water and sanitation funding for WASH MDA’s (Ministries, Departments and Agencies) – over N2.4b in 2012
• Rehabilitation of over 100 schools (plan for all schools) and ensure safe WASH services in the education sector
