Abstract

Today, the lack of clean water and proper sanitation methods is a problem for many developing countries such as Kenya. With the help of the SDGs, governments have guidelines that will enable them to create better policies for their country. However, those policies won't be accurate enough at the local level. It is the case for Bomet County, which is among the neediest region for water and sanitation in Kenya. In the study, we realize that to build better policies for Bomet, we need to create local indicators for the people that are left behind. For this reason, the Global Institute for Water Environment and Health (GIWEH) aims to strengthen the monitoring framework of the County. In this context, we designed a set of indicators that focuses on the real needs of local communities in terms of gender issues, affordability of water and sanitation services and rural development.
