The Rural Water Supply, Sanitation & Irrigation Programme (Ru-WatSIP) intends to implement a simplified community-based Water Safety Plan (WSP) approach in the rural water supply programme in Afghanistan. Such an approach is new to Afghanistan and faces some unique challenges. Alhough the main challenges reside in obtaining a common understanding on a simplified community-based WSP concept and agree on a minimum package of activities under the rural water supply program, there are other underlying factors such as the structure of community leadership and stakeholder participation which has hampered the process since its inception.
