Water Quality Protocols: Ensuring Pure, Tested, and Safe Water for Every Child in Zambia

At World Vision Zambia, we are deeply committed to ensuring that our water supply interventions provide more than just access; they guarantee safety and long-term health for every child and community. In alignment with the World Vision Global Water Quality Protocol, our technical teams implement a standardised process of rigorous physical, chemical, and bacteriological testing for all newly constructed and rehabilitated water facilities prior to commissioning.

By adhering strictly to World Health Organisation (WHO) guidelines and national standards, we systematically assess critical parameters, from heavy metals to microbiological elements, to certify that every borehole and mechanised system delivers safe, clean, and reliable drinking water. Through evidence-based monitoring and strategic quality assurance, we continue to fulfill our promise of transforming lives across Zambia by securing a sustainable foundation of safe water for generations to come.
