The global commitment to bring universal
access to safely managed water supply and sanitation by 2030
set by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) poses an
unprecedented challenge. Strong political leadership will be
required to bring about sector-wide changes in governance
and building technical and administrative capacity at scale.
This will pave the way for building, operating, and
maintaining cost-effective infrastructure to supply improved
and sustained services. The current model of sector finance
is insufficient for reaching thee goals. Four interlinked
priority actions should be taken to tackle this challenge:
(1) make more efficient use of existing resources; (2) use
public funds in a more targeted manner; (3) attract domestic
commercial finance; and (4) focus on de-risking the sector.
Through these steps, countries will be able to leverage each
dollar of public funds to crowd in commercial finance, which
will have significant and long-term benefits for the sector.
Countries should aim to slowly and incrementally introduce
commercial finance to the sector, and can ease the
transition through a range of available tools. |
