Abstract
This document aims to share lessons
learned from the implementation of the World Bank financed
component of the rural water supply and sanitation project
(EPAR) in the Sud region after its final evaluation. Leading
the reform of the drinking water and sanitation sector in
Haiti, the EPAR of the National Directorate of Drinking
Water and Sanitation (DINEPA) involved the construction or
rehabilitation of drinking water schemes in small towns with
fewer than 10,000 inhabitants in the Sud region. As a result
of the project, there will be a real and sustainable
increase in the water supply to Haiti’s populations of
benefitting communities of the Sud region, thus providing
improved access for most households. A long-term solution
must be implemented in order to make the meters more
affordable to the operators and thus enable them to continue
expanding their customer base.
