Access to clean water and basic sanitation is a basic human right that sadly many communities in Africa are deprived of. Luckily Rocla's sanitation project is out to change that, one community at a time.

In Africa, access to clean water and basic sanitation is still a distant dream for millions. The statistics are stark; according to the World Bank, over 387 million people in the region lack access to a basic drinking water source, while 737 million people are deprived of basic sanitation services, with over 197 million resorting to open defecation. These numbers reflect a dire situation that urgently needs attention.
For too long, the lack of good water and sanitation services in Africa has been a glaring human rights issue. It's a problem that affects the health, safety, and dignity of countless individuals. The severity of the situation demands collective action from government agencies, international organisations, and private institutions. Solving this issue isn't just a matter of improving public health; it's about raising living standards, fostering growth, and igniting progress within these communities. This is why this sanitation project is such an important undertaking for Rocla, a means of bringing health, safety, and dignity to these distressed communities.
Their sanitation solutions go beyond traditional initiatives. They include innovative toilet designs, decentralised waste management systems, and community-led sanitation programmes. These initiatives aim to deliver more than just sanitation, they strive to create:
- Lasting sustainable development
- Environmental protection
- Reduction of inequalities
- Community empowerment
"The rollout of our sanitation project has been one of our proudest moments at Rocla. Empowering schools and communities in rural areas has been rewarding, and it has been a pleasure to provide them with dignity and access to proper sanitation," said Rocla's chief of operations, Alan Smith.
