Kenya’s Vision 2030 recognizes that Kenya is a water scarce country and therefore emphasizes water conservation and the prudent use of for the limits available potable water. The National Water Resources Strategy and the National Water Services Strategy aim at ensuring that water resources are conserved and maintained and Non-Revenue Water (NRW) at water supply and sanitation systems is reduced to acceptable levels.
The NRW reduction management standards consisting of a manual, guidelines and handbook are meant to provide a practical approach to reduction of NRW in Kenya.
