Updated - Tuesday 09 February 2010

Mr. Brito Soca, Provincial Director of Water in Mozambique, explains what messages he shared in his province and why life-cycle unit costs are important to take into account.

Sustainable costing of water services over five years is very important. After having been in a sharing meeting in Maputo he used some of the information in one his municipalities. He has also organised workshops with colleagues on this topic in his province. " People realise that water is beneficial for them and that good quality water costs money."
