The per capita standard, combined with population figures, can be used to compute the domestic water demand of a city. It serves as a reference point to assess the adequacy, ‘water shortages’, and ‘over consumption’. The per capita standard is also used to assess future needs.

Today, #RWB, in collaboration with the @AfDB_Group , hosted the Launching workshop for the Muvumba Multipurpose Water Resources Development Program – Additional Financing.
This project to be implemented in partnership with @RwandaAgriBoard will focus on irrigating 3,073 hectares of farmland in @NyagatareDistr. It represents a key downstream investment linked to the Muvumba Multipurpose Dam, which is expected to be completed in early 2027.
The Executive Chairperson of the Rwanda Water Resources Board, @rnyirishema underscored the project’s importance, noting: “We can have the infrastructure, but as long as the water is not reaching the population either through water supply or irrigation, the full potential of the dam will not be realized.”
Once completed Muvumba Multipurpose Dam will store 55 million m³ of water to generate 1 MW of hydropower, irrigate 11,000 Ha, & supply 50,000 m³ of domestic water daily.
