The project will be implemented by WaterAid Nigeria in Plateau state from July 2018 to July 2020 primarily with the Society for Water and Sanitation (NEWSAN) and other key civil society networks in the state. WaterAid Nigeria (WANG) will work through the CSO partners to strengthen the technical capacity of WASH institutions in Plateau state and work with community groups in providing platforms of engagement between citizens and service providers

In the focal LGAs of this project, water supply access is dismal, with 18.3% of households in Riyom LGA having access to a clean water source and 6.4% of households having similar access in Shendam LGA while less than 5% of communities in the LGAs have had the CLTS approach implemented in them.
