Results & Indicators
Expected Results
The ultimate goal of the Mali: Health Communities (JI NI BESEYA) project was to improve the living conditions of 60,877 vulnerable people in the regions of Bla and Kati through access to inclusive, equitable and sustainable WASH services. To achieve this, the project has set itself three intermediate results: i) Infrastructure, products and services in WASH are used and managed in a sustainable manner; (ii) Targeted communities adopt appropriate WASH practices; and iii) The incomes of women and youth associated with WASH are improved.
Achieved Results
At the close of the project, 82,074 people were directly affected and 198,769 people were indirectly affected, results that far exceed the initial targets of the project.
To sustain the activities, the project developed skills and capabilities of locals in the area in infrastructure planning and management as well as in the area of behaviour change through local troops and artists. In addition, the project has contributed to the emergence of local cooperatives, women’s and youth entrepreneurship and the active participation of these target groups in local development actions in the target municipalities.
