Description
Summary:The participation of users - in designing and implementing projects and managing water and sanitation services - is now being built into Bank-funded projects with the aim of increasing efficiency, equity, and cost recovery, and facilitating the extension of service coverage to poor communities. Success depends on establishing the necessary institutional arrangements for participation and project delivery. In addition, task managers have to spend more time in the field, and adapt Bank procedures to support appropriate models for financing and procurement.
