| description |
To evaluate and reflect the
sustainability of services in the region, an overall sector
sustainability assessment was conducted taking into account
four main dimensions: access to services, quality of
services, efficiency of services, and financing of services.
Each of these dimensions is measured through three simple
and objective indicators. For each indicator, best practice
values are established by looking at the best performers in
the region, and countries closest to those best performers
are deemed to have a more mature sector. A more complete
description of the methodology to assess sector
sustainability is included in the annex of the state of the
sector regional report from the Danube water program. The
outcomes of this assessment for the Kosovo water sector are
presented, which also shows average and best practices in
the Danube region. As a result, the Kosovo sector
sustainability score is 63, which is close to the Danube
average sustainability of 64. The assessment shows that, on
average, the country performs well in terms of access to
piped water and flush toilets, continuity of service,
staffing level and operating cost ratio. The main
deficiencies identified through the sector sustainability
assessment are the investment level, nonrevenue water, and
wastewater treatment coverage. The main sector challenges
are: securing stable and long-term financing for compliance
investments; increasing water utility billing collection;
and improving the efficiency of utilities to enhance their sustainability. |
