Senegal’s Rural Water & Urban Sanitation Sectors Leverage Private Sector Participation to Improve Service

 

An exciting shift is happening in Senegal’s water and sanitation sectors. Long lauded for its successful urban water Public Private Partnership (PPP), which began in 1996, Senegal is now seeking Private Sector Participation (PSP) in its rural water and urban/peri-urban sanitation sectors.

Partenariats public privé novateurs au service de la durabilité de l’approvisionnement en eau potable en milieu rural

Ce résultat encourageant est le fruit de quatre années d’activités visant à relever les défis auxquels le secteur est confronté. Le Gouvernement béninois par le biais du Ministère de l’Eau (MERPMEDER) a mis en œuvre ces activités en partenariat avec le WSP, l’IFC et l’ambassade des Pays-Bas. Le renforcement de la professionnalisation des services d’approvisionnement en eau dans les petites villes passe par les étapes suivantes :

  • concevoir un modèle de PPP adapté aux réalités locales ;

TOR Toolkit – Cost-Plus

This TOR is one of four designed to produce innovative types of NRW Reduction Contracts. The TORs are designed to be used as part of an NRW-reduction project being implemented in accordance with the NRW Manual. It is assumed that the consultant will be engaged after completion of an Initial Assessment, and if needed, a Field Assessment (see Section 5 of the Manual). That assessment will have gathered information on the Water Balance, assessed whether NRW control is needed, whether a contract-based approach is appropriate, and what the goal of the contract should be.

Senegal shifts its thinking: Rural water delivery moves to private operators

Overnight success takes years, as the saying goes – and that’s certainly the case for the delivery of water to rural regions of Senegal. On July 2, 2015, the Government of Senegal celebrated the signing of its first lease (affermage) contract in the rural water sector, the result of a partnership that marks a significant and promising shift in rural water management for the country. This success in Senegal was years in the making, dating back about 15 years to the start of Senegal’s reform process.

Aumentando el abastecimiento de agua a clientes a través de un contrato basado en el desempeño para la reducción del NRW

En el 2005, la ciudad de Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) no contaba con tenía suficiente suministro de agua para satisfacer la demanda de sus 6 millones de habitantes. Menos de la mitad de la ciudad estaba conectada a la red y más del 40 por ciento del agua producida se estaba perdiendo a través de fugas. El abastecimiento era intermitente.
