Water and Sanitation Deputy Minister, Mr David Mahlobo, will host the Award Ceremony for the Water and Sanitation Education Programme (WSEP) 2025 at ANEW Hotel in Benoni, Gauteng, on 10 October 2025.
WSEP is the department’s school-based education initiative aimed at creating awareness among learners and society about water resources management, water services and sanitation. It also promotes careers in the water sector for learners.
The programme gives exposure to school learners to identify water and sanitation challenges in their respective schools and communities, and to develop innovative inventions to address these challenges.
During the Ceremony, bursaries, laptops, prize money, certificates, and trophies will be awarded to the winning schools and learners. The Department of Water and Sanitation encourages learners to study towards water and sanitation-related careers using the bursaries offered.
