This presentation focuses on the lessons learnt from scaling-up multiple-use water services (MUS) in various regions, including the Mekong, Nile, Andes, Indus-Ganges, and Limpopo. It explores the different stakeholder groups involved in scaling-up MUS, such as water users, community-based organizations (CBOs), NGOs, the domestic sector, the productive sector, and local government. The presentation also discusses the opportunities for scaling-up MUS and highlights the need for collaboration and integrating fragmented support to achieve sustainable and inclusive water services.

This presentation Project focus on • Homestead-scale MUS • Community-scale MUS Scaling-up by five water stakeholder groups • Water users, CBOs, and local private service providers • NGOs • Domestic sector • Productive sector • Local government
Homestead-scale MUS50-100 lpcd; 5 lpcd safe‘most MDG per drop’ resilient food and income…. health labour saving, gender ..from crops ..from enterprise ..from livestock ..from fish
Community-scale MUS Multiple sources, shared infrastructure, re-use People’s participation for livelihoods and sustainability
1. Water users, CBOs • Own investments and innovations for self-supply and local management have always been for MUS • Seeking to integrate fragmented professional support Farmer Wisdom Network N.E. Thailand Water for Food Movement South Africa Communal self-supply in peri-urban Cochabamba, Bolivia
2. NGOs • MUS increasingly obvious for livelihoods goals • Technological innovation homestead-&community-scale MUS • Institutionalizing MUS in government for sustainability and upscaling IDE, Nepal Mvuramanzi, Zimbabwe CRS, Adi Daero basin, Ethiopia
3. Domestic sector • Targeting everybody, including the poor, and homesteads • Single-use expertise on health • Expertise on engineering and management for small-scale uses • Claiming unplanned livelihood benefits • Recognizing higher design norms for anticipated expansion • Future planning for higher service levels, with 5 lpcd safe • Moving up from ‘add-ons’ to community-scale MUS IDE, Jalswarajya/Aple Pani Maharashtra Cinara, PAAR, Colombia
4. Productive sector • Expertise on productive end-uses at fields and direct access (crops, soils, markets, livestock, fisheries) • Expertise on engineering and management for larger-scale uses and water resources management • Recognizing the homestead as a site of pro-poor and gender-equitable productive water uses, besides domestic uses • Moving from ‘irrigation add-ons’ to community-scale MUS
5. Local government • Permanent democratic interface to match communities’ needs with fragmented support • Developing implementation capacity for iterative community-scale MUS (e.g. SADC seven steps approach) AWARD, South Africa, integrating MUS in municipal Integrated Development Plans
In sum Opportunities for Scaling-up MUS Water users, CBOs and NGOs: • Community-scale MUS for livelihoods • Homestead-scale MUS a likely priority Domestic and productive sectors: • Merging resources and expertise on engineering and management across sites and scales; • Providing single-use expertise according to people’s priorities Local government: the coordinator
