According to a report by the London-based International Institute for Environment and Development 20 percent of Malawi’s 13 million people live in city areas with the urban population likely to double between 2010 and 2030 and safe water condition will be a great challenge.
The research report also indicated that less than one-tenth of Malawi’s town population live in homes connected to sewers.
In a survey of 1,178 households conducted in May and June last year, it found that water and cleanliness remained “woefully inadequate” in the nine settlements across Malawi’s three biggest cities Blantyre, Lilongwe and Mzuzu.
