Abstract
The Cameroon water connection scheme
that started in 2008 is the first GPOBA project to be
implemented under an affermage contract. It is also the
first subsidized water connection program in West Africa to
be implemented through an output-based aid (OBA) mechanism.
This note highlights the emerging lessons learned from the
design of the project, summarizing the challenges and
opportunities in applying OBA to the affermage model and how
they were dealt with. A second note will share lessons from
the project's implementation.
