What is Circuit Riding in WASH?
- Definition: A practical support model where trained WASH technicians or officers regularly visit schools and villages to monitor, maintain, and support WASH infrastructure and behaviors
Why it's ideal for rural Kenya:
- Limited access to skilled labor
- Communities can’t afford frequent repairs
- Low technical capacity to maintain water systems
