Financing sanitation to meet the millennium development goals
The
study, financed by the Norwegian Ministry of the Environment in support of the
Water and Sanitation Program (WSP), involved identification of key financing challenges
to meet the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) related to sanitation and definition
of specific financing mechanisms to overcome these constraints. The study drew
from examples of good practice of financing approaches in several countries based
upon the available literature as well as drawing directly from the experiences
from the WSP field offices and feedback from the relevant thematic groups of the
World Bank. The output from the study was a paper orientated towards an international
audience of government representatives, donor agencies, NGOs, civil society associations
and international financing institutions (IFIs), which was presented at the 12th
Conference of the Commission on Sustainable Development (CSD-12) in New York 2004
and was subsequently published by WSP.
