Sierra Leone Waterpoint Database

This project, led by the Ministry of Energy and Water Resources (MoEWR) with support from WSP and UNICEF, surveyed over 28,000 protected public waterpoints in Sierra Leone between February and April 2012. The full dataset is now available online at www.SL-wash.org, providing in-depth information for each point. Key findings reveal critical investment needs, seasonality issues, high breakdown rates, and the necessity for improved agency coordination. The data supports better planning, fundraising, and offers local analysis tools for stakeholders.

  1. Sierra Leone Waterpoint Database Presentation of Project and Data

  2. Project Overview • Project led by MoEWR with WSP & UNICEF support • Completed in three months (February to April 2012) • 28,000+ protected, public waterpoints surveyed

  3. The Database • Full dataset now available online: www.SL-wash.org • In-depth information for each of the 28,000+ points • Data allows better planning and fundraising

  4. Database Demo • View waterpoints • Filter by attributes • Show service level • Local analysis • Use satellite data

  5. Results - Overview Five Key Results • Major investments needed & data shows where • Seasonality is a major issue • Breakdown rates too high • Construction should be focused on fewer pump models • Coordination between agencies needs to be improved

  6. Results - Overview Major investments needed Survey shows total points and detailed service gaps • 28,845 points surveyed 18,908 protected & in use  4,148 partially damaged  5,137 broken down • Service gaps often very local  Detailed investment planning needed

  7. Results - Overview Coordination Lacking Up to 6+ agencies in same chiefdoms just in last 3 years!  Improve coordination to keep overheads low.

  8. Results - Overview Seasonality is a major problem Up to 40% of points provide insufficient water in dry season  Better standards for location & construction required Rainy season Dry Season

  9. Results - Overview Breakdown rates are unacceptably high 22% of points built in 2011 already impaired  Local ownership & active management shown to improve performance and should be encouraged

  10. Results - Overview Focus Construction on Key Pump Types India Mark (II) and Kardia most popular pump types 64% of handpumps are India Mark (II)  Focusing on these key models will economize on training of mechanics and sparepart supply chains

  11. Next Steps • Please send commentson draft report by 15th July: mhirn@worldbank.org • Regional maps & coordinated planning effort • Updating of the Map
