Debundscha

Imagine a community with about 3,000 inhabitants, with a record number of rainfall & overall wetness, a village that lies on the flanks of Mount Cameroon, where there are plenty of water sources but one without clean water.
– this is Debundcha.
 

Buea Town

Seven communities concentrated around Buea Town in Southwest Region of Cameroon do not have proper access to potable water. To this day the 15,500 inhabitants of these communities queue for the little drinking water taps available or depend on buying water in jerry cans.
Seven communities concentrated around Buea Town in Southwest Region of Cameroon do not have proper access to potable water. This is rather surprising as these communities are situated on the slope of Mount Cameroon, a 4,000 metres high volcano, with ample springs and a high availability of water. To this day the 15,000 inhabitants of these communities queue for the little drinking water taps available or depend on buying water in jerry cans. Obviously this influences the hygienic conditions and economic position of the communities heavily.
LiveBuild and Humaniforest support the communities to manage their own water system and to conserve their water sources. The communities implement a ‘community-owned, business operated’ model to enable them to generate sufficient income to maintain the system. This system will be a gravitional system in order to avoid high running costs because of pumping water. The new water system will contain new construction and the renovation of parts of dysfunctional existing water systems.

Our approach

LiveBuild was founded in 2007 and has been working in the southwest and northwest regions of Cameroon since 2008. With our partners we realize community development projects in water and land management, education and health. we currently work in 11 communities with over 41.000 inhabitants.

Kake II

The village Kake II (pronounced ‘Cockatoo’) has access to clean drinking water. LiveBuild supported the village with the realization of a water system. Kake II is our first project where a local water company that is owned by the village, manages the system itself.

Manganjo

The goal of the Manganjo water project is to provide clean drinking water and good sanitation facilities for three villages: Mabonji, Nganjo Nene and Nganjo Nene’s little brother, Nganjo Titi. This is a significant change as the villagers now have to walk several kilometers in order to provide their families with water. Through this project, the communities will manage and maintain the water system themselves through a local water company, which has already been set up.

Lobange

Every week, the Water Committee of Lobange phones our local project partner Jaba Wose. They report on the progress made in the village and are keen to know the next steps necessary to obtain their most important goal: the realization of their own water system. When this first part of the project is done, the village will be responsible for maintaining the network of storage tanks and pipes.

Diffa

Diffa is a small village in Cameroon with around 800 inhabitants. The village is 3 km away from social facilities, clean drinking water and medical care. In Diffa, collecting water on a daily basis is still a time-consuming activity.
