Evaluation of the Water4Virungas project in DRC, Rwanda and Uganda (2017-2021)

The evaluation looked at the Water4Virungas programme (2017-2022), which focused on water supply, water resources management and conflict transformation around a national park in the border region between DRC, Rwanda and Uganda. Although there are some suggestions for improvement, by and large the evaluation is positive.

Through the lessons learnt on water supply, water resources management and conflict transformation and project development, the evaluation contributes to further improvement of Dutch programming in the Great Lakes region. These lessons are particularly relevant for activities that have started in the targeted area in DRC as Water4Virungas neared its end. The report is public, and can be shared with relevant stakeholders.
