In 2012, the Italian NGO G. Tovini Foundation, together with the Universities of Dakar (Senegal) and Brescia, started a cooperation project in the Rural Community of Patar (Diourbel, Senegal) aimed at improving water security and living conditions of the people by implementing the Water Safety Plan (WSP) approach. The objective was to elaborate and implement the WSP approach in the Rural Community of Patar (RCP), where drinking water was characterised by both microbial and chemical contamination directly at the source level. A specific WSP was developed for the 3 different drinking water sources used by local people. Moreover, a WSP for the transport and storage steps was elaborated.
