Description
Summary:Creating a global core set of indicators that can be integrated into existing monitoring efforts or harnessed as a foundation for new monitoring efforts will improve the efficiency of the sector and still enable collection of locally-relevant information. Following a World Bank review of 40 different existing rural water indicator frameworks from national and development partner project systems, a set of 24 existing indicators was identified as a potential set of global core metrics for rural water supply. This knowledge note describes challenges, opportunities, implementation, and next steps for measuring what works in rural water.
