| description |
Since 2016 the World Bank has explored a
wide range of country experiences in delivering better water
supply and sanitation services. The analyses led to
publication of three new global frameworks for designing
water reforms: Policy, Institutional, and Regulatory
Incentives, which looks at the broader sector enabling
environment; Water Utility Turnaround Framework, which looks
at utility-level reforms; and Maximizing Finance for
Development, which looks at shifting the financing paradigm
to reach the Sustainable Development Goals. The three
frameworks—individually and as a compendium—set forth the
key principles of a more holistic approach to reform that
diverges from the traditional focus on infrastructure
economics to a deeper understanding of the behavior of and
between sector institutions and of the people within those
institutions. Each country-specific reform path will
gradually bring the sector to higher degrees of maturity
with a strong focus on improving financial sustainability.
This summary note integrates the three lines of work—utility
reform, sector reform, and sector finance—for readers to
understand the critical links between the three spheres. New
contributions of this note are a Maturity Matrix for
assessing where a country is in its reform process and where
it wants to go and a Maturity Ladder that identifies typical
actions to move from one stage of maturity to the next.
Tools and references are also provided to help governments
start on their reform path. |
