Webinar: Digitalization of WASH Services in Africa: What Are the Real Impacts on Jobs and Performance?
Africa’s water and sanitation sector is at a decisive turning point.
Faced with rapid urbanization, increasing pressure on resources, and growing expectations in terms of service quality, a silent revolution is underway: digitalization.
But beyond technology, a key question arises:
