An independent study conducted by a French NGO in Sierra Leone at the end of 2010, and funded by Pro Victimis Foundation, surveyed all existing water access points across three districts, documenting in detail the quality of the 2,859 structures identified. The results are disquieting. Only 30 per cent of the structures in place were found to be capable of delivering access to safe water throughout the year and 56 per cent were capable of producing safe water at some point in the year.
