1. Background• The UN/DESA and the Ethiopian MoWR have launched

in 2007 the Global Initiative for Rationalizing Water Information and Monitoring Systems (GIRWI).

• Monitoring on ad hoc basis, most often with emphasis on attaining physical plans.

• For decades, most monitoring activities were focusing on project performance; financial investments and inputs outputs delivered.

• There are no agreed comprehensive indicators.

• Recently the National WaSH Inventory (NWI) undertaken in 2010/11 is analyzed using the Access data base.

2. Introduction-WPM• The Mapper is aimed at local government

planners and WaSH field practitioners working on district, sub-district and village levels.

• The project has been implemented in eight woredas and four regions of WAE financed service delivery WaSH projects.

current Progress (6.1%)

GTP: refers to the Growth and Transformational Plan of the Ethiopian government, which aims to reach the 98.5% of Water coverage at the year 2015.WWW.wateraid.org

5. Decision Making - Acceptable Access distance

WWW.wateraidethiopia.org

Decision required:• Many of the schemes are mul-functional. Hence the need for Supply Chain system (O & M).

• There are some significant kebeles fetching water from a far distanced sources, indicating the construction of new water schemes.

Decision Making - Water Point Functionality

WWW.wateraidethiopia.org

•The decision required for map-1 is to take action on the mul- functional schemes by the woreda offices.

• The decision required for Map-2 is to plan and prioritize the un- served communities with no or very less access to water sources.

Decision Making - Coverage functionality

WWW.wateraidethiopia.org

• Additional water points are required for fair distribution as per the national standard.

• The woreda has allocated 1.4 million ETB for Water schemes construction from the government treasury source as a result of the above mapping. WWW.wateraid.org

Capacitating the woreda Staffs

WWW.wateraidethiopia.org

• Woreda technical Staffs were given the required CB training on IT, GPS, data collection and WPM

Data verification on Field

WWW.wateraidethiopia.org

• After the data have been collected, technically selected sample kebeles and WP were verified by WA for quality accuracy purpose.

Decision Making –Budget allocation

WWW.wateraidethiopia.org

Decision required:

The North Achefer woreda, Chief Administrator chairing the cabinet meeting (Heads of Sectors) on their regular meeting.

• The agenda presented by the head of Water office After discussion has got decision and approval of 1.4 million ETB for New water points construction.

Decision Making –Resource Mobilization

WWW.wateraidethiopia.org

• Bonke woreda (SNNPR) has developed a proposal and using the maps as evidences and mobilized about 1.2 Million ETB from Canada Embassy for WaSH investment.

6. Lessons Learnt• The average investment cost for one woreda is about

55,000 ETB (2,980 USD/1,900 Pounds).

• The maps for potential proposal development. (e.g.

Bonke (SNNP Region) generated 1.2 Million ETB).

• close supervision & proper verification for quality issue.

• The Water Point Mapping is a process, it should be updated periodically at least once in a year.

• The outputs could be used in informed planning, reporting

advocacy & influencing, and decision making processes.

7. Challenges for debate

• Affordability (55,000 ETB /2,980 USD)/Woreda-HOW MUCH

• The high & frequent turnover of technical staffs -WHAT

• Approaches for scaling up the project-HOW?

• The relevance of WMP as compared to the Access Program

used for NWI in the MoWE-HOW
