Under the leadership of the DNA/MINEA, the government is engaged in an ongoing process to develop the PNAASR, using the lessons learned from the Water for All Program and other activities in the sector, as well as national programs and successful projects from the region and the world. The design process of PNAASR took place during a period of three years 2012 - 2015, co-funded by the GoA and the African Development Bank.  Cowater International, Development Workshop Angola, in partnership with Burnside, was contracted to assist in the development of the PNAASR.

5. Expected ResultsExpected Results
The PNAASR and designed to ensure that the new services
are reliable and sustainable, provided at a reasonable cost
and equally for all rural inhabitants:
Result 1 : Increase the proportion of rural population with
access to water supply and improved sanitation (3.6M
beneficiaries estimated, to achieve an 80% national coverage)
Result 2 : Increase the proportion of the rural population with
improved practices in the management of water, sanitation
and domestic hygiene ( 5.3 M beneficiaries estimated)
Result 3 : Improved capacity of government and groups of
users to provide and ensure that services are sustainable.

7. Key elementsKey elements
Demand Responsive Approach (DRA), which expands the
involvement and commitment of the community;
Implementation of the Model of Community Management of
Water (MoGeCA);
Private sector development , for greater participation in the
provision of infrastructure for sanitation and the Operation &
Management of water services;
Cross-cutting themes of gender equality, healthy
environments and social equality ;
Direct Implementation by municipal governments ;

8. Key elementsKey elements
Strengthening of capacities at all levels:
At the municipal level that will serve as the core of
PNAASR, in accordance with the national decentralization
strategy;
The provincial level;
At the national level; and
The private sector.

9. Key elementsKey elements
Improved quality of infrastructure, achieved through new
standards and norms, rules of implementation and
supervision and procedures of management;
Transparent criteria for selection of projects for an allocation
of resources more efficient, effective and equal;
Greater attention to the operation of the infrastructure, post-
construction;
Improved monitoring of the performance of the sector of the;
and
Improved communication and exchange of information
between the partners.

10. Sanitation and HygieneSanitation and Hygiene
Combined approaches to change the behavior of
Sanitation : The Community-led total sanitation (CLTS),
marketing of sanitation and of communication approaches to
behavior change and increase in the supply of goods and
provision of services.
Complementarity of Water Supply, Sanitation and Hygiene
Promotion : the operations of water supply, sanitation and
hygiene should be made simultaneously where necessary.
10

11. Characteristics of the DemandCharacteristics of the Demand
Responsive ApproachResponsive Approach
Community express a demand for water and sanitation
services;
Households express service level preferences;
Household demand expression is “informed” – meaning that
households become aware of the implications surrounding
their preferred service levels in terms of the associated long-
term financial and social costs and obligations; and
Communities work closely with financing and implementing
agencies to develop the structures and establish the rules
required to create viable water and sanitation services.

12. MoGeCA DevelopmentMoGeCA Development
The recently-approved MoGeCA should be piloted in its
current form, with additional refinement, including:
- Development of additional management models;
- legalisation of the GAS (Water & Sanitation Groups);
- role of the GAS under alternative provision of O&M by either
the private sector or the provincial utility;
- development of post-construction support arrangements; and
tariff setting.

15. PhasesPhases
The PNAASR will be performed in three stages:
Phase 1 (2015 - 2018): pilot phase in the Provinces of
Zaire, Lunda Sul and Huambo with 1.288 M new users;
Phase 2 (2019 - 2022): national implementation to other
provinces; with 1.270 M new users, and
Phase 3 (2023 - 2026): complete national implementation;
with 1.060 M new users.
Over 3.6 million rural residents in selected locations are
expected to benefit from the Programme through new or
improved water supplies, while approximately 5.3 million will
benefit from the promotion of sanitation and hygiene.

24. Key Recommendations
• Local government will serve as the NRWSSP fulcrum, in-
line with the national decentralisation strategy.
• The critical importance of preparing community GAS and
local municipalities to assume their roles in water supply
operations and maintenance;
• The cross-cutting themes of gender equality, healthy
environments, and social equity are essential to
sustainable water supply and sanitation services and will
remain as constant foci of the Program.
• The continuing challenge of spare part provision to
ensure sustainable hand pumps and water systems.
