Strategies for financing water and sanitation projects.

The 1976 World Health Statistics Report3 reviewed the progress that 75 countries made in providing water and sanitation services4 during the period 1970-1975. Subsequently, over the years 1977-1980, survey teams provided through a cooperative WHO-World Bank program have conducted in-depth studies of the situation in certain of these countries. With few exceptions, the accumulated data show that the countries making the most progress in supplying their people with water and sanitation facilities over the past 10 years had several things in common. Each had a better-than-average supply of trained and experienced personnel. Each had a recognized national policy directed at achieving certain objectives by the end of the planning period. Each had budgeted increased amounts of money for this task. And each had established financial policies and strategies that encouraged funding from a number of sources. This article concerns itself with those elements relating to financial policies and strategies.
