Improved waste water services for Egypt

Author: Dima Hamdallah

Less than half of the rural residents in the Fayoum governorate in Egypt are covered by sanitation services or are connected to the centralised wastewater network.

Supported by the European Union and the European Investment Bank, we are improving wastewater services for Fayoum's rural inhabitants by building new treatment facilities and increasing the capacity of existing wastewater plants.

This will contribute to improving the overall health of the local population and depolluting Lake Qarun, Egypt's third largest lake.
