Abstract | In September 2007, eight of the ten current rainwater harvesting schools were visited and the SWASH+ facilities survey was conducted in those schools. In October 2007, 10 schools in Rachuonyo District of Nyanza Province, Kenya were selected to implement and conduct a pilot study on rainwater harvesting systems (RWHS). Schools also received hardware and training on the safe water system and new latrines. In July and November 2008, two rounds of the SWASH+ rainwater harvesting survey were conducted. Additionally, monthly ongoing visits beginning in July 2008 entailing collection of school recorded meter logs have been ongoing up to April 2009.This second report primarily focuses on identifying challenges schools face in maintaining their RWH systems, monitoring results of the schools’ safe water system components, what we have learned thus far with recommendations, and next steps.
