Watershed – empowering citizens, is a five year (2016 – 2020) strategic partnership programme, that aims to build the capacity of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) for evidence-based lobbying and advocacy on Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) services and Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) issues including fulfilment of human right to water, sanitation and sustainable allocation of water resources.

The programme contributes to the Sustainable Development Goal for universal access to water and sanitation services and water security (SDG 6) by making the voices of citizens heard, strengthening governance and accountability. In the Kenyan context, the programme’s implementation focus is in two Counties namely; Kajiado and Laikipia.
