| description |
The objective of this study is to
analyze how integrated policy, institutional, and regulatory
interventions (institutional interventions in brief) can
help align incentives for more sustainable water supply and
sanitation (WSS) service delivery. The context for the study
is the enhanced global concern about the sustainability of
attempts to increase access to, and improve the quality of,
WSS services, as exemplified in the sustainable development
goals. Aligning institutional interventions refers to
harmonization among the objectives for the sector, agreed
principles established through political and social
processes, and the organizations and mechanisms that
implement actions based on such objectives and principles.
This report focuses on the formal policy, institutional, and
regulatory interventions available to and or prevalent in
the water sector, recognizing the critical importance of the
informal conventions that will be key factors in the success
of any incentive regime. Previous global initiatives offered
a range of promising technical solutions that often proved
to be unsustainable. New thinking that draws not only
infrastructure economics but also on the understanding of
political, behavioral, and institutional economics is
needed. This new thinking must be grounded within the
differing contextual realities of countries globally and in
lessons learned from what has or has not worked with regards
to achieving specific objectives. |
