The institutional reform of the RWS subsector, notably marked by the implementation of a delegated management system for water supply networks, has led to improvements in both service quality and access, at a pace which remains only slightly below that required to meet the Millennium Development Goal (MDG) targets. In rural areas, the institutional framework remains poor and unstable. The management of water supply networks still needs to be improved; the sanitation subsector lacks both a clear intervention strategy and resources. These are the priority areas that need to be worked on to stimulate the capacity to mobilize and absorb financing, both domestic and donor. This second AMCOW Country Status Overview (CSO2) has been produced in collaboration with the Government of Mauritania and other stakeholders. 2014-04-11T18:01:12Z 2014-04-11T18:01:12Z 2011 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2011/01/19184413/water-supply-sanitation-mauritania-turning-finance-services-2015-beyond http://hdl.handle.net/10986/17766 English en_US An AMCOW country status overview; CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ Nairobi Economic & Sector Work :: Other Infrastructure Study Africa Mauritania
