Summary: | The African Ministers' Council on
Water (AMCOW) commissioned the production of a second round
of Country Status Overviews (CSOs) to better understands
what underpins progress in water supply and sanitation (WSS)
and what its member governments can do to accelerate that
progress across countries in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). AMCOW
delegated this task to the World Bank's Water and
Sanitation Program and the African Development Bank who are
implementing it in close partnership with United Nations
Children's Fund (UNICEF) and World Health Organization
(WHO) in over 30 countries across SSA. This second CSO
report has been produced in collaboration with the
Government of Burkina Faso and other stakeholders during
2009-10. The analysis aims to help countries assess their
own service delivery pathways for turning finance into water
supply and sanitation services in each of four subsectors:
rural and urban water supply, and rural and urban sanitation
and hygiene. The second CSO analysis has three main
components: a review of past coverage; a costing model to
assess the adequacy of future investments; and a scorecard
which allows diagnosis of particular bottlenecks along the
service delivery pathway. The second CSO's contribution
is to answer not only whether past trends and future finance
are sufficient to meet sector targets, but what specific
issues need to be addressed to ensure finance is effectively
turned into accelerated coverage in water supply and
sanitation. In this spirit, specific priority actions have
been identified through consultation. A synthesis report,
available separately, presents best practice and shared
learning to help realize these priority actions. |
