Boosting decentralized water solidarity mechanisms at the Swiss and global level

Projekt abgeschlossen

Today more than 780 million people still do not have access to a safe drinking water source and 2.5 billion lack access to basic sanitation. In developing countries municipalities and water utilities can play a key role in mobilizing additional financial resources and know-how for water supply and sanitation through decentralized solidarity mechanisms. The proposed project will strengthen the platform Solidarit’eau Suisse. The support to the Global Water Solidarity platform will contribute to global advocacy for and implementation of decentralized solidarity mechanisms.

Das Projekt in Kürze
Hintergrund

Decentralized solidarity mechanisms in the water sector are implemented in various countries, but so far, they are not used at a large scale and stay way below their potential. Thus, much more advocacy for decentralized solidarity mechanisms is required, as well as knowledge and capacity development for their proper implementation.
Ziele

  • Solidarit’eau Suisse: to leverage additional funds, capacity and know-how into the water and sanitation sector to contribute to the achievement of one of the Millenium Development Goals that is to halve, by 2015, the proportion of the population without sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation.
  • Global Water Solidarity: to contribute to the implementation of decentralized solidarity mechanisms at global scale by mobilizing concrete, tangible and measurable commitments from local authorities, national governments, specialized public agencies, private institutions and civil society organisations.

    Zielgruppen

    The ultimate beneficiaries from both interventions are poor and vulnerable people that currently lack access to safe drinking water and adequate sanitation. Beneficiaries include also local authorities and planners of decentralized solidarity mechanisms.
    Mittelfristige Wirkungen

  • Solidarit’eau Suisse: the efficacy of the Solidarit’eau platform is enhanced and the amount of funds and the number of municipalities that contribute financially and with know-how to water and sanitation projects in developing countries is increased.
  • Global Water Solidarity: knowledge about decentralized solidarity mechanisms and capacity for their implementation is increased at the global level; Global Water Solidarity is leading the global policy dialogue on decentralized solidarity mechanisms; additional funds are mobilized for the water and sanitation sector and Global Water Solidarity ensures its long-term financial sustainability by broadening its donor base.
