FWG in 2009 - 2012 Indicative proposals
Present situation: • The FWG project during 2008 – 2009 financed by the EU WF (€400k) and DFID (€340k) • Focused on two country WSS sector financing strategies (60 per cent of budget) • Little flexibility
Proposed guiding principles for 2009 – 2012: • Focus on water, make no distinction between IWRM and WSS • Retain EUWI character • Revert to being a genuine working group • Continue the partnership with the OECD • Support innovative or experimental activities
Possible new activities in 2009 - 2012 • Support EUWI/AWG country dialogues • Work closer with AMCOW – start with briefing on WSS financing strategies • Conduct workshops on water finance in collaboration with GWP • Explore issues in water pricing • Apply FEASIBLE methodology to IWRM • Enhance role of the private sector in WSS
Next steps • 2009 transitional year • Appoint small advisory group • Work with AWG on country dialogues and contacts with AMCOW • Engage consultants to develop project concepts (water pricing, private sector, FEASIBLE/IWRM) • Start with financing workshops
