Analysis

The Safe Water Programme in Kenya has verified additionality and documented safeguards, but is undermined by multiple material findings (sampling methodology gaps, potential chlorine-tablet bias), a leakage deduction that dropped from 5% in the PDD to 0% in monitoring without clear justification, and nine cross-document contradictions that erode confidence in the reported figures. The project is in its early crediting period with corrective actions still open, making the current credit volume carry elevated over-crediting risk.
