The implementation of this latest national plan is being coordinated by the Ministry of Planning, with the support of the Ministry of Public Health. The Congolese National plan recognises the need for a gradual shift in the current health funding paradigm of treatment of diseases caused by contaminated drinking water, lack of sanitation and inadequate health education. The new paradigm will focus on the prevention of water borne diseases by assuring the availability of potable water, sanitation facilities and health education programs.
