The objective of this report is to
better understand the challenges of meeting Sustainable
Development Goal 6.1 from the perspective of off-grid
services currently being used by a large and increasing
proportion of the urban population. For this assessment, two
key distinct areas with high current or potential off-grid
service dependence have been analyzed-core urban areas and
peri-urban areas. The core urban areas comprise primarily
the slums or poor population pockets that have not been
covered by conventional piped systems. The peri-urban areas
are characterized, on the one hand, by the displacement of
population, industries, and services from the city center to
the periphery, resulting in economically rich growth
centers, while on the other hand, by slow or poor absorption
of these areas into provisioning of basic urban facilities
or services by local bodies, resulting in high dependence on
independent off-grid service providers. At its heart, this
is a scoping study which can provide the foundation for
follow-on work that would lead to "reimagined"
off-grid service delivery arrangements that complement piped
systems-not as a sub-optimal solution but as an acceptable
alternative that will ensure all urban residents have
"equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water |
