Specifically the study intended to explore the understanding of people of activities towards water projects implemented in their localities; examine roles of community in implementing and sustaining rural water projects; examine perception of community to their participation and sustainability of water projects implemented in their localities. The study population was the villagers, WEOs, VEOs, and WUAs in Morogoro Rural district specifically in Mkambarani, Mvuha and Dalla villages. The study also targeted District official in water department. Data of this study was collected through questionnaires, interview, observation and documentary methods. A total of 112 respondents were reached and the data was processed and analyzed using SPSS. It was observed that the community has low understanding of project activities because all project activities were handled to contractors for implementation. With this implementation strategy, the community was required to contribute 5% of project cost and hence community participated through consultation in identifying project water sources, and financial contribution in implementation and operationalization of project. It was also learnt that water management was decentralized to community themselves. It was also observed that some villagers perceived their participation as supportive to project success where as others perceived their participation as exploitative means by leaders due to fraud and lack of transparency on project fund for operation and maintenances. Such perception demoralized participation of community in Dalla and Mkambarani water projects respectively. The study find it worth to institute mechanism to watch over accountability and transparency of WUAs to get rid of fraud and unnecessary confidentialities on project fund to enhance villagers trust to WUAs and hence project sustainability.
