Experiences to be shared, initiatives to be developed

For several years now, and in several countries, different solidarity financing mechanisms have developed between the users of water and sanitation services in the North and users in the South. Such mechanisms could be strengthened or developed in other countries. Far from being marginal, the funds that can be mobilised through these initiatives help to make a significant contribution to development in the South, targeting zones and populations that are sometimes isolated from institutional co-operation.

This site gives some examples and links to other solidarity financing mechanism stakeholders.
