Phase out strategies in WASH

2. Phasing out, exit or transition? • From exit to transition, lessons and measures. • Transition is relative, programmatic synergy needed. • Focus on sustainability is key, but not limited to transition countries.
3. Domestic resource mobilization & sustainability • High aid dependence and SDG funding gap. • Providing right conditions to tap into domestic capital. • Global lobby for innovative financing and local resource allocations.
4. Sustainability tools for new way of working • Sustainability clause, check and compact. • Systematic application helps to increase levels of functionality.
5. Future outlook on sustainability & transition • Guided by SDG 6. • Increased focus on environmental sustainability. • Sustainability tools further rolled out. • Redefining ‘Trade’ ? • More flexible transition pathways?

Editor's Notes

This presentation:
Want to give some insight in current ways of working with regards to transition countries (response to IOB evaluation)
Want to link transition from aidt to mor trade related relationship to focus on sustainability in WASH programmes.
Guve two examples of concrete initiatives for sustainaing WASH services.
Want to emphasise that focus on sustainability needs to contibue to be broad.
Slide 1: Phasing out, what are we talking about?
IOB: 6 countries ODA phased out as part of reduction # partner countries.
Analysis Paul Hoebing: Process flawed, involvement of local stakeholders, no clear strategic thinking about the relationship beyond the phasing out.
World to gain: clearer strategy to change relations ships (no phasing out, but transition) with certain countries to gradually from purely aid to more investment and trade related. Tools: Country specific transition plans and transition facility. Specific focus on equity and sustainability.
Transition is relative: bilateral ODA is phased out, centrally funded programmes still possible, but needs to be better aligned with transition plans.
What is trade? With NL or also regional?
Focus on sustaining WASH services helps the transition as contributes to reducing grant dependence, but is part and partial of our WASH work regardless of the type of country.
In principle efforts on sustaining WASH services is guided by FIETS principle.
SDG funding gap, And GLAAS report (aid dependence)
F (inancial): Example of KPWF. Domestic resources as part of reducing aid dependence. E.g. also US water services funded by municipal bonds. (slide with picture).
Global lobby for more domestic resources
• Introduction of tools: clause, check and compact: has changed the discussion with implementing partners. Example: UNICEF Mozambique:
o Systematic annual/external/representative check on functionality
o Analysis of limiting factors sustainability (technical/financial/institutional).
o Management response and mitigation measures
o Level of sustainability increased from 57%…. To 80% na 5 yrs.
• Guided by SDGs
• More focus on integrated approaches for water: e.g. IWRM or landscape as organizing principle for integrated programmes. Brings water users together. Added value NL!
• Roll out of tools to bilateral programmes. Focus on alignment with local (government) M&E systems, create ownership local!
• More flexible approaches to transition? ISB mission indicates that hard deadline for transition might not be appropriate.
• Further elaboration on ‘trade’ ?
