The Ministry of Agriculture, Water, and Land Reform is rolling out a Water Sector Support Programme aimed at addressing Namibia's water supply and sanitation challenges.

A six-year contract between Namibia and Germany, to be funded by KfW Development Bank, has been signed to increase access, quality, security, and sustainable water supply.

At the signing ceremony, the Chief Executive Officer of NamWater, Abraham Nehemia, announced that the monitoring consultant under the Water Sector Support Program has been awarded to a joint venture between GKW Consult GmbH, a German consulting firm, and Burmeister and Partners, a local consulting engineering firm.
