In terms of water availability, SADC

Water is usually found in one of three forms:

• There is either too much,• Or there is too little,• Or it is too dirty”

We could also add that water is often:

• Out of sight (underground), or

• Someone else’s property

Zambia is a land-locked country in Southern Africa with an area of 752,620 square kilometers.

Administratively it is divided into nine provinces with 72 districts (Government of Zambia; 2002) with a total population of 9.8 million in 2000; 11.7million in 2006.

Zambia has generally sufficient surface water to meet the present and future demands.

The total surface water potential is estimated to be 237 million m3/day, distributed among major rivers as shown. (JICA, 1995)

However surface water is not available all over the country, especially the southern and western provinces depends largely on groundwater.

2. CHALLENGE: Peri-Urban (PU) areas in Zambia

JICA (2001:1) defines peri-urban areas as unplanned urban settlements that are disorderly developed mainly due to the rapidly increasing population.

There are 372 peri-urban areas in Zambia; only 191 (51%) of these are legalized (GKW Group, 2006).

In Lusaka, there are 33 of them including Chaisa, Ngombe, Kalingalinga, Mtendere and George. Others are Kanyama, Chipata, Kamanga, Kalikiliki, Misisi, Chawama, Jack Compound, Mandevu

Page 27: Prof. Imasiku A. Nyambe, Coordinator IWRM Centre

Table 3: Peri - Urban Characteristic features

1. Informal or formal settlements of unplanned origin: This unplanned nature is a hinderance to up-grading of services in the areas as it does not afford an easy layout of piped network in order to achieve desired higher levels of service (household connections) of 100% coverage.

Table 3: Peri - Urban Characteristic features 2. High density low cost housing units:

3. Severe service deficiencies (poor infrastructure):

4. Unprotected wells, boreholes & dilapidated small piped water networks as main water sources: Most of the PU areas, particularly in Lusaka, are located in low flat areas, which are discharge areas and as such they have high water table often sitting on excellent aquifer systems.

5. Poor water quality and supply: e.g “Too Numerous to Count (TNTC) (Zulu and Nyambe, 2001).

6. Poor public health with high disease prevalence: water borne diseases such as cholera.

7. High population density and growth rate: For example Kanyama with 198,686 people has a higher population compared to Kabwe with 176,758 (CSO, 2000), a planned municipality with WSS network. In planning coverage

8. High unemployment levels: The unemployment levels are highest among the youth.

13. Important market for goods and services:

14. Strong platform for political activities:

15. Poor sanitation with traditional pit latrine as the main type:

16. Haphazard solid waste and solid waste disposal:

17. High number of vulnerable groups (orphaned, elderly, physically challenged including HIV/Aids patients):

Page 30: Prof. Imasiku A. Nyambe, Coordinator IWRM Centre

18. High mobility level: general migration of rural population in search of employment, there is a high level of in and out migration from PU areas.

19. Lack of social structure, strong community based organizations & governing bodies: PU areas lack the social structure based upon traditional leadership and traditional institutions as well as strong community based organizations.

20. High levels of vandalism: Due to high poverty levels, there is a high level of vandalism in PU areas and some large ones in large towns, a high level of crime exists.

2.2 Water Supply and Sanitation

Peri-Urban areas in Zambia are faced with several challenges in the provision of water and sanitation

One major challenge in Lusaka is the need to meet the demand for safe and adequate potable water, as well as the need to provide access to adequate sanitation for inter- alia so as to meet Lusaka's ever rapidly increasing population.

Maputo city, on the other hand, with a population of ca. 3 million people and an area of 750 Km2 is one of the fastest growing cities in Mozambique.

Over the last two decades one of the biggest challenges of the municipal authorities has been to secure a safe and clean source of water for domestic consumption for the fast growing urban population.

Page 44: Prof. Imasiku A. Nyambe, Coordinator IWRM Centre

3. Response Options

Page 45: Prof. Imasiku A. Nyambe, Coordinator IWRM Centre

This necessitated putting in place the National Water Policy of 1994(NWP, 1994) which set the framework for the development and management of the water sector in Zambia, a strategy (MLGH, 2001) to tackle issues in the policy, specifically for peri-urban areas and guidelines most of which have a bearing on PU areas.

Due to the poor performance of the institutions charged with the management of the water sector, Government realized the need to reform the Water Sector, which started in the 1980s.

•For example, the principal Water Act governing the management of water resources dates from 1948 and fails to address key modern day issues such as the use and protection of groundwater, shared international waters, or customary law.

Page 46: Prof. Imasiku A. Nyambe, Coordinator IWRM Centre

The main issues were:

• Lack of a comprehensive sector policy or strategy to guide sector organisations in the performance of their tasks;

• Unclear roles and responsibilities for the water sector leading either to duplication of efforts or gaps in some areas;

• Deteriorating infrastructure as a result of poor maintenance and lack of new investments, with most of the investment being provided by external Support Agencies;

• Erratic and insufficient funding through Government with little impact of government institutions on the ground;

Page 47: Prof. Imasiku A. Nyambe, Coordinator IWRM Centre

• Increasing pollution of water resources among other environmental problems, particularly in the mining areas;

• Non-existence of comprehensive legislative framework for managing water (No sector policy on Water Resources Management (WRM) and Water Supply and Sanitation (WSS); the Water Act from 1948 was outdated and did not cover WSS); and

• Lack of stakeholder involvement and ownership by consumers and users.

The reforms have and are being strategically implemented into two: Reorganisation of the Water Supply and Sanitation sub-sector (WSS) from 1993 to date; and Reorganisation of Water Resources Management from 2001 to date.

Page 48: Prof. Imasiku A. Nyambe, Coordinator IWRM Centre

In 1994 National Water Policy was therefore adopted to address the issues, with emphasis on strengthening framework for Water Resources Management following an integrated water resources management approach.

The objective NWP: to promote sustainable water resources development with a view to facilitating adequate, equitable and good quality water for all users at acceptable costs and ensuring security of supply under varying conditions.

Page 49: Prof. Imasiku A. Nyambe, Coordinator IWRM Centre

1. Recognising the important role of the water sector in the overall socio-economic development of the country

2. Vesting control of water resources in the country under state control.

3. Promoting water resources development through an integrated management approach.

4. Providing adequate, safe and cost effective water supply and sanitation services with due regard to environmental protection.

5. Defining clear institutional responsibilities of all stakeholders in the Water Sector for effective management and co-ordination.

6. Recognising water as an economic good

This objective was to be achieved through the following key policy strategies:

Page 50: Prof. Imasiku A. Nyambe, Coordinator IWRM Centre

Starting with WSS sub-sector, the Government enacted the WSS Act. No 28, 1997 to address the poor performance to bring about an organisational change management and produced permanent structures (Fig. 3)

• that has transformed the water supply and sanitation sub-sector into institutional change management with a focus on full cost recovery, efficient delivery, transparency, and sound financial management.

(i)On Commercial Utilities (CUs), the LAs opted for the establishment of CUs as provided for in the WSS Act. No. 28 of 1997 through which they can deliver the services.

(ii)This option has ensured a higher degree of autonomy in operations with a promise on full cost recovery leading to a more sustainable provision of services in an efficient manner.

Legalization of many peri-urban areas has facilitated planning for development processes and initiatives.

Some peri-urban areas are now connected to the main water distribution net-work of commercial utilities (CU’s) and Water Trusts (Table 7).

Most of the developmental projects going on in Lusaka’s peri-urban areas are carried out by NGO’s or e.g. CARE International, for example, has been very instrumental in this aspect.

Page 55: Prof. Imasiku A. Nyambe, Coordinator IWRM Centre

(i)The DTF - a basket fund focusing on service provision to the urban poor as a response to increase coverage in peri-urban areas and thereby promoting low cost technology.

From 1988 to 1995, the Danida-funded Community Development Programme (CDP) helped to initiate innovations in participatory planning and community contracting in selected peri-urban areas of Lusaka.

(i) DTF is considered an appropriate instrument to reach the MDGs for the urban poor. By 2006, the funds had assisted in enabbling about 40,000 urban poor people to have access to safe drinking water.

On the Water Resources sub-sector, in 2001 government started the Water Resources Action Programme

WRAP developed:Water Resources Management Bill Institutional Framework, Draft Water Action Plan (WAP) for the transition phase (preparation for the enactment and establishment of the new legal and institutional framework).

Programmes from these initiatives have been incorporated into the 5th National Development Plan (5th NDP) and an IWRM /WE Implementation Plan has been developed to implement the Water and Sanitation Chapter and other water related programmes in the 5th

Page 59: Prof. Imasiku A. Nyambe, Coordinator IWRM Centre

To complement and build on the efforts to improve water management, Government in 2006 initiated the Water Sector Programme Support (WSPS) with DANIDA assistance, focusing on:

1. Rural Water Supply and Sanitation;

2. Peri-Urban and Low-Cost Housing Water Supply and Sanitation; and

3. Integrated Water Resources Management. (i) IWRM in Ministry of Energy and Water Development (MEWD), (ii) Strengthening of the water rights system administered by

the Water Board (WB), (iii) Groundwater monitoring systems in pilot areas (iv) IWRM capacity built through University of Zambia (UNZA) (v) Piloting of decentralised water resources management

structures and (vi) Rehabilitation and construction of small dams and weirs.

With the adoption of IWRM, the water sector is now viewed in a broader context.

The challenge is how to effectively coordinate and monitor policy development and implementation of the IWRM framework if the Water Sector Reforms are to succeed.

To meet this challenge the Government has revised the 1994 Water Policy to include other sectors impacting on IWRM such as agriculture, hydropower, environment etc. not elaborated upon in the 1994 one.

In conclusion, in Zambia, the Government has respondent to the drivers and challenges of the water resources in Zambia.

BUT we have a CHALLENGE in front of us
