| Summary: | The Water Global Practice, under the WSS
GSG Utility Turnaround thematic area, has implemented the
Global Study on WSS Utility Aggregation to provide
evidence-based guidance to policy makers and practitioners
regarding when, why, and how water and sanitation utilities
can work together ("aggregate") to successfully
deliver specific policy outcomes, such as better services or
lower costs. This work builds on a review of existing
literature and an analysis of both qualitative and
quantitative evidence, a global data set of international
trends, a utility performance database, and a series of case
studies. The deep-dive of 14 case studies of aggregation
processes in seven countries (Brazil, Colombia, Hungary,
Indonesia, Portugal, Mozambique, Romania) allowed conducting
a qualitative analysis, by centering on the stakeholders
involved, the decisions made, the roles of sector actors and
their incentives, and the perceived outcomes with a view to
bringing forward the essence of each case experience. The
selection of the countries and specific providers was done
in a manner to ensure a diversity of geography, development
level, size, and aggregation design. |
