Angola is advancing national water security through large-scale infrastructure programs. The National Water Security Program (ProÁguas) for the 2026-2036 period requires an estimated $4 billion investment, though only $750 million is currently available. Minister of Public Works, Housing and Water Resources Fernando Rafael noted that mobilizing additional funds is critical to improving sanitation, reducing water loss, and expanding supply services.

In a specific initiative under the Climate Resilience and Water Security Project (RECLIMA), the government launched the Immediate Action Program (PAI). This program, funded by the World Bank and the French Development Agency, focuses on rehabilitating 617 rural water supply systems across five southern provinces. The project targets both solar-powered and manual pumping systems, aiming to repair hydraulic infrastructure and protect equipment from vandalism and environmental damage to ensure long-term service sustainability.
