BACKGROUND
USAID Lagos Urban Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (LUWASH) project in Nigeria is a program being implemented by Chemonics International Inc. through SAII Associates Ltd/ Gte (hereafter referred to as “SAII”).

It will support both service providers and regulators through a robust baseline assessment and building the general data ecosystem. LUWASH will rekindle a commitment to rebuilding the social contract around WASH services in Lagos State and strengthen public accountability and transparency.
