WaterAid is an international NGO dedicated exclusively to the provision of safe domestic water, sanitation and hygiene education to the world's poorest people. WaterAid's vision is of a world where everyone has access to safe water and effective sanitation.
The Ghana programme was established in 1985 and it has since been operating through partnerships with local NGOs. These NGOs, eight of them at the moment, perform the day to day implementation and project management functions while WaterAid provides financial and technical support. WaterAid Ghana now has projects in seven out of the ten regions in Ghana.
