The Government further expressed its interest through an official request. The Municipality of Marondera with a population of 65,000 inhabitants was selected by the Government of Zimbabwe to receive support to develop an integrated water and wastewater Master Plan that will in part present detailed prioritized investments. This project will also build the capacity of the key sector players, which will in the long term foster an integrated approach in managing the water and sanitation facilities in the country. Goal: The overall project goal is to provide the Municipality of Marondera with an innovative integrated planning approach that will ensure the sustainable management of water and sanitation for Marondera’s population. The project will address the immediate water and sanitation infrastructure needs, the development of an Integrated Urban Water Management (IUWM) Master Plan for the Municipality and enhance the capacity of the Government of Zimbabwe and key stakeholders to implement sustainable water and sanitation facilities. Rationale: The IUWM approach contributes to improved water security through the adoption of a holistic approach.

The proposed IUWM approach is based on effective participation of key sector partners from the public, private and social sectors, and with each having an interest in good water governance. Activities and Implementation: The Ministry of Environment, Water and Climate will be the Executing Agency. The project which will be implemented over a 30 month duration consists of four project components as follows: (i) Component 1 focuses on some immediate repairs to the water and sanitation infrastructure; (ii) Component 2 deals with Sustaining the Future which involves developing
