Segera Water Project: A Constitution for Community Empowerment and Clean Water Access
The Segera Water Project Constitution establishes a not-for-profit CBO in Segera Village, Laikipia County, to improve community livelihoods by providing clean water and sanitation. It outlines membership, leadership roles, financial management, and decision-making processes, ensuring transparency, accountability, and fair access to services. The CBO has legal status, can raise funds, manage assets, form partnerships, and, if dissolved, transfer assets to a similar organization.
