"Before CDA's intervention, I was a wreck, lacking the basic human needs with no income. Today, I earn a living from my farm and provide for my family."
-Peter Goi, Chairman, Kasokoni Water Users Association.
In the arid lands of Taveta, access to water can mean the difference between hardship, giving up in life completely or tides changing and you get bounty harvest.
Through the Challa water project, CDA helped channel water to farms in Kasokoni, opening up opportunities for irrigation and sustainable agriculture.
After years of CDA training on Good Agricultural Practices and bringing water to the community through the lake Challa irrigation project, Peter Goi, Evelyn Mutuku, Rose Kadogo and many other farmers in the area have transformed farming into a thriving enterprise that supports families. Most of the stories are the same.
Their stories aretestament to the many residents of Kasokoni whose livelihoods have been transformed through access to water. It is living proof that strategic investments in water infrastructure and community empowerment continue to deliver lasting benefits long after project completion.

Projects Sustainability begins with community ownership.
For the CDA community engagement does not end when a project is completed. During a recent customer satisfaction survey in Taita-Taveta County, CDA revisited the Machungwani and Wololo boreholes, which were handed over to local communities in November 2025 to assess their impact and sustainability.
Before handing over projects, CDA facilitates the formation and training of community management committees to ensure continuity, ownership, and long-term success. The visit confirmed that the communities continue to benefit from the water projects while also identifying other priority areas where CDA can support development.
