The project also supports the first objective of the Government of Angola's Vision 2025, which aims to ensure universal access to universal access to water supply in urban areas by 2025, and is in line with the Energy and Water Sector Action Plan for Angola, which stresses the importance of expanding water systems and introducing reforms in the water sector.
