About Us.

The Government of Kenya received financing from the World Bank (IDA) toward the cost of implementation of the Kenya Water Security and Climate Resilience Program (KWSCRP). The project is implemented by the Ministry of Water, Sanitation and Irrigation (MoWSI) in collaboration with various executing agencies including the National Irrigation Authority (NIA); Water Resources Authority (WRA); National Water Harvesting and Storage Authority (NWHSA); Coast Development Authority (CDA); and the County Governments of Mombasa, Kwale, Nyandarua and Nakuru. The first operation of the project (KWSCRP-1), the Lower Nzoia Irrigation Development Project, has two development objectives: (a) to increase access to irrigation water for project beneficiaries and (b) enhance the institutional framework and strengthen capacity for water security and climate resilience in certain areas of the country. The second operation (KWSCRP-2), Mwache Dam Project, development objective is to increase of bulk water supply to Mombasa County and Kwale County and increased access to water and sanitation in Kwale County.
