Kisumu is set for a major expansion of its water and sanitation systems after it secured a Sh10.6 billion investment under the Lake Victoria West Water and Sanitation (LVWATSAN) program.

The project is funded by the Government of Kenya in collaboration with Agence Française de Développement (AFD), the European Investment Bank (EIB), and the European Union.
