Session during the survey
Keeping track of all project-related metrics including team performance and task duration, identifying potential problems and taking corrective actions necessary to ensure that the project is within scope, on budget and meets the specified deadlines is key to the success of a project. These are the sentiments that informed the Water Research and Resource Center (WARREC) to carry out a household monitoring exercise on it BabyWASH Project one year down the line since the start of its implementation in Kajiado County.
This exercise was carried out on the 23rd – 26th April 2019 in the project sites of Lornguswa and Meto Locations of Kajiado County. It was aimed at tracking out the project progress to inform on any deviations so as to take corrective actions necessary to ensure that the project is implemented within scope, on budget and meets the specified deadlines. BabyWASH project is a collaborative project between Word Vision Kenya and Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT) through its Water Research and Resource Center (WARREC).

How can I get involved in WARREC activities and research? I am doing my Masters in Environmental Management and Legislation at JKUAT and my project seeks to develop a cheaper, more environmental friendly and effective method of treating wastewater. I have published two journals on the same and would love to be involved as I have a passion in researching on water management and conversation activities and how they can be implemented to help communities and save this scarce yet important resource in our nation.
Hi, Lilian,
Thanks for your interest on WARREC activities. At the moment we dont have any vacancy but will update you if one arises.
