WATER AND SANITATION

High Correlation between the two Sectors.

Access to Sanitation lagging behind Access to Improved Water.

High Correlation between income and Access Rates.

Page 19: Water and Sanitation in Africa: Status, Challenges and ...

• Service/management contract

–Relatively common in WSS in Africa.

– Can lead to Improvements in quality of services.

– Increase in access not guaranteed.

• Lease/Concession

–Less common in Africa in WSS in Africa

– Can lead to Improvements in quality of services.

– Increase in access likely.

CHALLENGES FOR PPP:

IMPLICATIONS FOR MDG TARGETS

-Countries with favorable investment climate already have high access rates. Limited Capacity for countries with low access rates. High rate of cancellations in previous PPPs.
