| Summary: | The first round of Country Status
Overviews (CSO1) published in 2006 benchmarked the
preparedness of sectors of 16 countries in Africa to meet
the Millenial Development Goals (MDGs) based on their
medium-term spending plans and a set of success factors
selected from regional experience. Combined with a process
of national stakeholder consultation, this prompted
countries to ask whether they had those success factors in
place and, if not, whether they should put them in place.
The African Ministers' Council on Water (AMCOW)
commissioned the production of a second round of Country
Status Overviews (CSO2s) to better understand what underpins
progress in water supply and sanitation and what its member
governments can do to accelerate that progress across
countries in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The analysis aims to
help countries assess their own service delivery pathways
for turning finance into water supply and sanitation
services in each of four subsectors: rural and urban water
supply, and rural and urban sanitation and hygiene. The CSO2
analysis has three main components: a review of past
coverage; a costing model to assess the adequacy of future
investments; and a scorecard which allows diagnosis of
particular bottlenecks along the service delivery pathway.
The CSO2 s contribution is to answer not only whether past
trends and future finance are sufficient to meet sector
targets, but what specific issues need to be addressed to
ensure finance is effectively turned into accelerated
coverage in water supply and sanitation. A synthesis report,
available separately, presents best practice and shared
learning to help realize these priority actions. |
