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
