Water and Sanitation


2/15

1. Introduction

Water, as regards Carmo Vaz (1997:37), is a natural resource to human livelihoods and

economic activities, in a nutshell, unlike the case with most other natural resources cannot be

easily replaced in most their uses. So water is not just an element indispensable to life, it is

also a conditioning factor for economic development and social welfare.

Despite access to clean water is the right of a citizen, in Mozambique there are still a

significant segment of the population facing difficulties related to lack of sufficient water of

good quality for drinking, only 20% of the Mozambican population has access to drinking

water and only 8% of rural population corresponds to the National Institute for Rural

Development (INDER 1998) and taking into account that approximately 70% of the

Mozambican population is rural, according to data from the National Statistics Institute (INE,

1999), we can affirm that most of Mozambican population have no access to drinking water.

Sanitation in Mozambique is making progress but the pace and coverage throughout the

country remains far from achieving the millennium goals.

One point that increases the lack of water and basic sanitation in rural communities is the lack

of qualified personnel to maintain the various equipment and systems there is an appropriate

level.

2. Relevance of Course

The Graduate Engineering Water and Sanitation will mainly be concerned with aspects of theapplication and adaptation of techniques and technologies needed in rural areas.

Water and sanitation are key elements in civil society that encompasses almost all areas in the

country.

A source in this medium that separates drinking water supply from potential contamination, as

an additional supply or a protected well or spring, is considered "safe. " Interpretation of

"access has varied among countries, but generally refers to a domestic supply of 20 liters that

can be searched within a 30 minutes round trip, a distance of about one kilometer.

It is reasonable to infer that the strategy of rural development in the southern region must be

coupled between the intensification of extensive systems regarding the treatment of water and

sanitation thereby reducing the epidemics that spread about our country due to lack of basic

means.

Thus the formation of students in ESUDER for rural development at national level will target

the immediate response in areas affected by the catastrophe of nature or other areas there is a

shortage of the precious liquid (water) and lack of basic sanitation facilities.
