Known as the Usafi wa Mazingira Tanzani (UMATA) in Kiswahili, the five-year UMATA programme is funded with US$ 5,000,000 from WSSCC and aims to increase access and use of improved sanitation facilities in the country. It also seeks to positively change behaviours related to sanitation and hygiene on a wide scale for communities. With an initial focus on three districts near Dodoma, namely Bahi, Chamwino and Kongwa, the programme builds upon the National Sanitation Campaign and existing country strategies.
