__NOTOC__
====Chapter 1: Introduction====
 
The preparation of this DCOM manual has been preceded by an overview of four important global consideration of Water Supply and Sanitation prior to reviewing the water and sanitation sector in Tanzania. It is followed by an explanation of the rationale for the preparation of the 4th edition. The introductory chapter is concluded by presenting the organization of the manual as well as the purpose and content of this volume of the DCOM.

In 2015, world leaders came together at the United Nations in New York and adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Governments responded to the common development challenges they faced and the changing world around them by uniting behind a truly forward-looking, yet urgent plan to end poverty and create shared prosperity in a healthy and peaceful planet. The Agenda 2030 central principle is leaving no one behind in achieving the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through 169 targets. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development adopted at the UN Summit includes the SDG 6 on Water and Sanitation and in December 2016, the United Nations General Assembly unanimously adopted the resolution “International Decade for Action - Water for Sustainable Development” (2018–2028) in support of the achievement of SDG 6 on water and sanitation and the related targets <ref>[https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org/ ''Helping governments and stakeholders make the SDGs a reality'']. Retrieved 1 March 2020. </ref>. It should also be noted that water and sanitation are at the heart of the [https://unfccc.int/process-and-meetings/the-paris-agreement/the-paris-agreement Paris Agreement] on climate change 2015.

Ensuring availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all has therefore been for a long while an important topic at the United Nations and is now turning this vision into a reality, through national leadership and global partnerships. Water and sanitation are at the core of sustainable development and the range of services they provide, underpin poverty reduction, economic growth, and environmental sustainability. The world needs now to transform the way it manages its water resources and the way it delivers water and sanitation services for billions of people as indicated in [https://sustainabledevelopment.un.org/sdg6 SDG6].
 
 
 
Therefore, the designers and engineers have the responsibility to support the Government to achieve the SDG 6, where population growth and rapid urbanization have intensified demand for water and sanitation services beyond all past thresholds.
 
 
 
======Climate Change and Resilience to Climate Change======
 
Climate change is now recognized as one of the defining challenges for the 21st century. More frequent and intense extreme weather events have resulted in a higher incidence of floods and droughts around the planet. The ensuing adverse impacts of climate change on water and sanitation services constitute a clear and present danger for development and health. Ensuring optimal resilience of water and sanitation services in a globally changing climate context will be crucial for maintaining the momentum of making progress in health and development. Climate variability is already a threat to the sustainability of water supplies and sanitation infrastructure.
 
 
 
Floods are “normal” occurrences that continue to cause shocks for the affected population and to challenge water and sanitation managers. In many places they are likely to become more frequent with intensification of climate change, thus;
 
 
 
• Floods can have catastrophic consequences for basic water and sanitation infrastructure. Such damage can take years to repair.
 
• On a smaller scale, drinking-water infrastructure can be flooded and be put out of commission for days, weeks or months.
 
• Where flooding of sanitation facilities occurs, there may not only be a break in services, but the resultant flooding may distribute human excreta and its attendant health risks across entire neighbourhoods and communities.
 
 
 
Droughts occur  unpredictably, worldwide. In many places they are likely to become more frequent and more widespread with climate change. For example:
 
 
 
• Falling groundwater tables and reduced surface water flows can lead to wells drying up, extending distances that must be travelled to collect water, and increasing water source pollution. In response, drilling rigs – which would otherwise be used to increase access – may be redeployed to renew or replace out-of-service wells, slowing the actual progress in extending access
 
 
 
Since climate change is likely to affect water sources and infrastructure in Tanzania and therefore it must be taken into consideration in design operation and maintenance of water and sanitation infrastructure or projects. Globally, climate change studies are coordinated by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). Accordingly, designers should therefore use the latest information, data and model predictions available and include a statement on what measures, if any, have been allowed for in order to cope up with the climate change within the time frame of their project design (i.e. design life). Further information on impacts of climate change and resilience is given in appendix A.
