| dc.description.abstract | Despite huge investment invested by donors, tax payers and governments on access to safe, adequate and reliable drinking water sources in rural parts of Ethiopia. Large number of rural communities face a shortage of safe drinking water due to frequent systems failure. The objective of this study was to evaluate sustainability of the rural water supply schemes in Kebridahar Woreda. Qualitative and quantitative methods were employed to gather primary data for the study. Randomly, 203 households were selected in the study area and data collected on 2022. Household survey, focus group discussion, key informant interviews and field observations using structured questionnaires/tools were applied. Multi-criteria analysis technique was applied for the sustainability of the water supply scheme analysis. The result indicated that community engagement, technical aspects, water point management techniques, and community training all have an impact on the sustainability of community water supply schemes. From the overall sustainability analysis result, three are in the partial sustainable class, and three are in the poor sustainable class. The study recommends that community participation in the whole project cycle should be enhanced, donor participation to the local population and government bodies is very important.
