Overview

1. Monitoring framework for LVWATSAN

2. Methodology for monitoring MDGs– Remote sensing and and Geographic Information System

(GIS)– Urban Inequities Survey: Community profiling and Household

Survey

3. Next steps

4. Capacity building needs for national and local monitoring?

1. Monitoring framework

Objective: to monitor coverage and quality of service provision for MDG target group

“Target 10: To halve the number of people without access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation by 2015…

…Target 11: Achieve significant improvement in the lives of at least 100 million slum dwellers by 2020.

• Global monitoring of target 10 undertaken by the JMP (a joint collaboration between WHO/UNICEF).

• Global Monitoring of target 11 undertaken by UN-HABITAT.

1. Establish a baseline; 2. Mapping the poor;3. Assist stakeholders in identifying needs in terms of water,

sanitation, solid waste management and drainage; 4. Ensuring investments reach the poor;5. Monitor and assess sustainability of investments; 6. Monitor and track coverage of service provision;and7. Advocacy and long term strategic planning tool for policy

makers;► Specifically, highlighting issues related to service provision in URBAN

areas.

Remote sensing and GISDevelopment of Geographic information system (GIS) was

contracted awarded to the Regional Centre for Mapping Resources for Development (RCMRD) in March 2006 to develop GIS databases for all LVWATSAN towns.

GIS development strategy:- – Step one: procurement of satellite images (Quickbird 0.60m

accuracy). – Step two: digitization of images and development of GIS databases

through field verification and additional maps (cadastral, town planning, utility plans/networks etc..)

– Step three: demarcation of enumeration areas– Step four: digitize community profile results– Step five: Carry out capacity needs assessment for O&M of GIS

database and develop strategy for CB.

Step one: satellite images

Main household Survey

Water Module

• Source of drinking water

• Distance to water source

• Time to water source

• Quantity of water – at least 20 litres pppd

• Treatment of water

Sanitation module• Type of sanitation facility• Number of household sharing

facility• Location of facility from dwelling• Hand washing facility• Disposal of children’s faeces

•Sample size 1,500 households •Uses the same questions posed by MICS, DHS and WHS •Modules on:-

Household listingEducationInternal MigrationEconomic Activity (employment formal & informal) Water SanitationSolid Waste ManagementSocial capital (groups, trust, collective action, communication, crime etc…) Household Economy (income and expenditure)

Additional questions on:-

Water• Volume and payment of water (piped and non-piped),• Separation of vendors (tank, cart, bicycle), • Separation of time (time taken to collect water and time taken in queue),• Questions on water for drinking, bathing, cooking washing seperated• Reliability of water, perception of water quality,• Treatment of water.

Sanitation• Cost• Sanitation Technology separated between on-site and off-site• Emptying of latrines• Safety of sanitation system

= Disaggregated data for children and women

Solid Waste module

► Aim to measure USAGE i.e. affordability, convenience, safety, perceptions etc ….

3. Next steps1. Digitization of household data. National Statistics offices or RCMRD?

2. Periodic monitoring of water and sanitation coverage (MDG target 10 an 11).

3. Disseminate information at Global, National and Local Level = communication strategy.

4. Transfer information and GIS to local authorities. Taylor make systems for urban planning, solid waste O&M and revenue collection.

5. Transfer GIS to water utilities and regulators. Requires build-up the GIS database to map water utility networks, use in WDM etc…

6. Creating a “mother” GIS database for each country.

4. Capacity buildings needs?

• Training and creating capacity within water utilities to carry out utility mapping, operate GIS system for O&M (WDM, leakage and planning);

• Convert GIS into a simple, easy to use and affordable system for billing and revenue in water utilities and local authorities;

• Developing a methodology and capacity within a national institution to maintain “mother system”; and

• Assisting institutions to use the information. Advocacy and awareness raising.
