Water Integrity: Contribution to the Water Integrity Network and to the Country Programmes
Lack of water integrity and high levels of corruption preclude quality governance of the water sector, the efficient achievement of safe water and adequate sanitation for all. Following a human-based approach, this programme aims to increase water integrity by supporting advocacy work at the global level, as well as country programmes which aim to increase transparency, accountability and participation at the national, regional and local levels.

Contexte |
Water is a scarce resource and still not everyone has access to safe water and adequate sanitation. To improve the situation, large flows of both public and private money are invested in the sector. On the other hand, informal actors often play a key role in service delivery. As the sector is being regarded as highly technical by most actors, the voice of most vulnerable communities who lack access to water and sanitation facilities is often neglected. This makes the water sector particularly prone to corruption at all scales, from grand to petty corruption. The World Bank estimates that 20 to 40% of water sector finances are being lost to dishonest practices, which are both a cause and a consequence of poor governance in the water sector. |
Objectifs |
Water integrity is a common principle and practice in the water sector and right holders are empowered thus leading to better water management and equitable and sustained access to water and sanitation pursuing a pro-poor and pro-equity focus. |
Groupes cibles |
The final beneficiaries of the interventions are marginalised communities who are suffering from poor levels of integrity and cannot have access to safe water and adequate sanitation. Direct beneficiaries include: i) local communities and civil society ii) governments at the local, regional and national levels iii) members of WIN and especially its Swiss-based members. |
