Abstract:
This Report examines the financial status and needs of the global water sector in the light of the current international economic and financial crisis.
This report examines (in Chapter 3) the impact of the financial crisis since 2007 and relates this also to the impact of the food price crisis beginning one year earlier. Chapter 4 examines the status and trends in the financing of water in Africa, and Chapter 5 assesses the deficiencies of the current model that has created inadequate financial flows. Chapter 6 presents suggestions for Sida to consider in framing its response to the immediate financial troubles and – looking beyond these – addressing the underlying needs of Africa’s water resources management, services and governance through levers of change.
