Monitoring socio-climatic interactions to prioritise drinking water interventions in rural Africa
This study examines the year-onyear and seasonal relationship between rainfall and remotely monitored water usage from rural piped schemes in four sub-Saharan countries to identify patterns that warn of a threat to operational sustainability.
African low‐level jets and their importance for water vapor transport and rainfall
This research contributes to our understanding of possible future changes to African rainfall, by assessing how water vapour travels from the Indian Ocean into the African interior.
The utility of Escherichia coli as a contamination indicator for rural drinking water: Evidence from whole genome sequencing
In this study used whole genome sequencing to investigate the links between E. coli and recent faecal contamination in drinking water.
Institutional pluralism and water user behavior in rural Africa
This research examines water user behavior in the face of institutional change brought about by a professional service provider maintaining rural water infrastructure in Kenya.
From data to decisions: understanding information flows within regulatory water quality monitoring programs
This study evaluates the methods used to organize, analyze, and transmit drinking water quality data among 26 water supplier or surveillance institutions and two regulatory agencies in six countries of sub-Saharan Africa.
Extreme rainfall and the Turkwel Gorge Dam in Kenya: Understanding risks and management priorities
This brief discusses how understanding rainfall variability can provide lessons for managing dams in drylands to improve water security for energy, agriculture, environmental and human needs.
REACH Global Strategy 2020-2024
REACH’s global research and impact strategy recognises our progress to date, and provides a roadmap for improving water security for 10 million people by 2024.
From data to decisions: Water quality monitoring programs in sub-Saharan Africa
This study describes and assesses the formal and informal systems used by institutions with regulatory requirements for testing drinking water quality in six sub-Saharan African countries to organize, analyze, and transmit information about drinking water quality.
