3. SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS
Officially known as Transferring our world: the 2030 Agenda
for Sustainable Development.
They are an intergovernmental set of goals (17) with 169 targets. Fig. 1
SDGs were officially adopted on 25 Sept. 2015 by the United Nations.
These goals cut across all aspects of human life.
Aim is to transform our lives and to make the world a better place to
live in.
These goals are a successor to the MDGs which lasted from 2000-
2015
5. GOAL 6: CLEAN WATER AND SANITATION
The objective of the Goal 6 is to ensure availability and
sustainable management of water and sanitation for all
Water scarcity affects more than 40 per cent of the global
population and is projected to rise. Over 1.7 billion
people are currently living in river basins where water use
exceeds recharge.
WASH experts have stated that without progress on Goal 6,
the other goals and target will not be able to be achieved.
6. TARGETS OF GOAL 6
The objective of the Goal 6 is to ensure availability and
sustainable management of water and sanitation for all.
Water scarcity affects more than 40 per cent of the global
population and is projected to rise. Over 1.7 billion
people are currently living in river basins where water use
exceeds recharge.
WASH experts have stated that without progress on Goal 6,
the other goals and target will not be able to be achieved.
7. TARGETS OF GOAL 6
By 2030, substantially increase water-use efficiency across all
sectors and ensure sustainable withdrawals and supply of
freshwater to address water scarcity and substantially reduce the
number of people suffering from water scarcity.
By 2030, implement integrated water resources management at
all levels, including through transboundary cooperation as
appropriate.
By 2020, protect and restore water-related ecosystems, including
mountains, forests, wetlands, rivers, aquifers and lakes.
9. FINANCING GOAL 6
For Nigeria to meet the Goal 6, the country needs to invest
approximately N52 billion (USD 1.3 billion) annually. The budget
allocated to the Ministry of Water Resources is N44.21 billion.
Federal and State governments provide only limited funding.
Thus, most public water and sanitation investments in Nigeria
are financed by international donors
Major donor include AfDB, China, EU, JICA, UNICEF, USAID,
WaterAid, World Bank etc.
Other donors include DFID, AWF, FDA, Islamic Development,
Bank, Emerging Africa Infrastructure Fund (EAIF) etc.
10. FINANCING GOAL 6 (Cont’d)
The Government cannot single-handedly finance Goal 6. If we are to
achieve Goal 6, funds must come from the following:
A. Government
B. Public-Private Partnership
C. International Donors (UNICEF, USAID, WaterAid.)
D. Bilateral Agreement with other countries e.g JICA, China
E: Loans from Banks like AfDB, World Bank, IDB.
11. PROJECT PREPARATION
Money is not all that is needed to achieve Goal 6. Lots of
projects executed in the country fail to meet their objectives
and have positive impact.
The main reasons for this are inadequate project preparation
and M&E.
Project Preparation consists of all the work necessary to
ensure that a proposed project is feasible and appropriate and
that it can be successfully implemented.
This ensure identification and elimination of risks
on time and ensures well conceptualization of projects.
13. STEPS OF PROJECT PREPARATION
Project Preparation answers the following questions;
Is there an enabling environment for my project?
Is my project clearly defined?
Is my project feasible?
What are is the risk profile of my project?
How will my project be structured (Logic Model)?
How will my project be financed?
How will my project implementation be monitored?
14. FIG. 4: PROJECT LOGIC MODEL
Project Logic Model describes how the program elements
work together to reach the project’s goals.
15. WHY PROJECT PREPARATION?
Project risks are managed and controlled
Optimally utilization of scarce implementation resources.
Projects are well conceptualized and planned.
Development is appropriately tailored to local needs and
is integrated in nature.
Funders can predict and manage their cash flows by
enhancing the predictability of project outcomes and
timeframes for implementation.
