The project has three components:

Capacity building and infrastructure improvement
The project develops the knowledge and skills of handpump mechanics to address gaps in O&M (Operation and Maintenance) of WASH facilities. This is also a livelihood strategy as the trained
mechanics are able to gain income by repairing handpumps in the area. To provide the children
with adequate infrastructure which enables behavior change the project rehabilitates school WASH infrastructure.
Consultancy and Lobbying
This focused at the formation of synergies with key WASH sector stakeholders (e.g. local government extension team, local leaders, community members etc.) to create a WASH friendly community. Key activities are community assemblies and facilitating a dialogue between the local population and the district officials. Through this component, PACHEDO strengthens the rights of the communities and increases the demand for WASH services.
