Stakeholders (any person, group, or organization) in water supply and sanitation initiatives may take varying role depending on the levels of an activity and envisioned interest of a given partner. Villagers/community, Water organizations, NGOs as well as governmental and international institutions have great responsibilities in the promotion and enhancement of the planning and designing the projects as well as supporting the construction and operation of the water supply and sanitation schemes. Table 5.1 illustrates different types and roles of stakeholders in the design of water supply and sanitation projects including guaranteeing sustainability of WASH services expected to be provided as guides by WASH guidelines for school and health (URT, 2016; URT, 2017) .
