One year since the first case of the COVID-19 pandemic was discovered in Kenya, the national and
county governments are still reeling from its effect. Both National and County governments have

floods, locusts, drought, and food insecurity.

Strengthening County Governments’ Accountability, Participation, and Commitment in the WASH Sector – Case Study of Kitui and Makueni Counties, Kenya

Rural Kenya and urban slums suffer the most, with most people often unable to connect to piped water infrastructure.
