A Turning Point for Manual Drilling in the Democratic Republic of Congo
Rural Water Supply Network Publication 2020-2 C H Kane & Dr K Danert 2020 A Turning Point for Manual Drilling in the Democratic Republic of Congo Publication 2020-2 Dedication Summary The authors dedicate this publication to Gambo Nayou This publication provides a source of inspiration from a country that (1963 to 2016). tends to otherwise be associated with humanitarian crisis, persistent con- flicts, recurrent civil wars and a generally obsolete road infrastructure. It describes over a decade of pioneering efforts by UNICEF, the Gov- ernment of the Democratic Republic of Congo and partners to intro- duce and professionalise manual drilling. This professionalisation pro- gramme is very important as it is estimated that only 43% of the pop- ulation have access to a basic drinking water service (JMP, 2019). In addition, the majority of the DRC is favourable to manual drilling (42% classified with very high or high potential, and 24% as moderate). The most favourable area for manual drilling is in the western part of Gambo was a man of vision, a person who looked into the future and the country, which has a soft geological layer of considerable extent saw things that many could not even imagine.

Situation Report
BABAY ZIKA VIRUS SITUATION REPORT YELLOW FEVER 15 JULY 2016 SUMMARY . In Angola, as of 8 July 2016 a total of 3625 suspected cases have been reported, of which 876 are confirmed. The total number of reported deaths is 357, of which 117 were reported among confirmed cases. Suspected cases have been reported in all 18 provinces and confirmed cases have been reported in 16 of 18 provinces and 80 of 125 reporting districts. Mass reactive vaccination campaigns first began in Luanda and have now expanded to cover most of the other affected parts of Angola. Recently, the campaigns have focused on border areas. Despite extensive vaccination efforts circulation of the virus persists. Eleven reactive and pre-emptive mass vaccination campaigns are ongoing in several districts in Benguela, Huambo, Huila, Kwanza Norte, Kwanza Sul, Lunda Norte and Uige provinces. Six other mass vaccination campaigns are nearing completion. Mop-up campaigns are being implemented in parts of the provinces of Cunene, Lunda Norte, Uige and Zaire. Other than an increase in the number of suspected cases recently reported, there are no updates regarding the epidemiological situation in the Democratic Republic of The Congo (DRC). For the last three weeks the national laboratory in DRC has been unable to confirm or discard any suspected cases of yellow fever due to technical issues. According to the latest available information (as of 11 July), the total number of notified suspected cases is 1798, with 68 confirmed cases (as of 24 June) and 85 reported deaths. Cases have been reported in 22 health zones in five of 26 provinces. -
