Media
The African Water Facility has since its establishment engaged intensively with African and international media.
The main objective of such media engagement is to ensure that the various stakeholders and populations are informed about AWF’s activities and African water issues by independent media in a critical manner.
AWF has committed itself to further awareness creation on the most important water issues and for further dissemination of comprehensive information. Media are a critical partner for reaching these objectives.
The AWF’s activities in this sector therefore include the setting up of a network of African journalists from various backgrounds and with interest and knowledge in water issues, the frequent dispatch of Press Releases on AWF’s activities and projects as well as contributing to communications activities in the water sector of its host organisation AfDB.
