AMCOW delegated this task to the World Bank's Water and Sanitation Program and the African Development Bank which are implementing it in close partnership with UNICEF and World Health Organization (WHO) in over 30 countries across SSA. This CSO2 report has been produced in collaboration with the Government of South Africa and other stakeholders during 2009/10. The analysis aims to help countries assess their own service delivery pathways for turning finance into water supply and sanitation services in each of four subsectors rural and urban water supply, and rural and urban sanitation and hygiene. The CSO2 analysis has three main components: a review of past coverage; a costing model to assess the adequacy of future investments; and a scorecard which allows diagnosis of particular bottlenecks along the service delivery pathway. The CSO2's contribution is to answer not only whether past trends and future finance are sufficient to meet sector targets, but what specific issues need to be addressed to ensure finance is effectively turned into accelerated coverage in water supply and sanitation. In this spirit, specific priority actions have been identified through consultation. A synthesis report, available separately, presents best practice and shared learning to help realize these priority actions.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO SANITATIONACCESS TO SERVICESACCESS TO WATERACCESS TO WATER SUPPLYADEQUATE SANITATIONAREAS OF SERVICEASSET MANAGEMENTAUGMENTATIONBASIC SANITATIONBASIC WATER SUPPLYBULK WATERCENTRAL GOVERNMENTCHANNELCIVIL SOCIETYCOMMUNITY WATERCOMMUNITY WATER SUPPLYCONNECTIONCONNECTIONSCONSTRUCTIONCOST OF WATERDEMOCRATIC PROCESSESDRINKING WATERDRINKING WATER QUALITYFINANCIAL VIABILITYFLUSH TOILETSFORESTRYFREE WATERGOVERNMENT GRANT FUNDINGGROUNDWATERGROUNDWATER RESOURCESHOUSEHOLD SANITATIONHOUSEHOLDSHYGIENEHYGIENE EDUCATIONHYGIENE PROMOTIONINVESTMENT PROGRAMINVESTMENT REQUIREMENTSKILO LITERLARGE CITIESLARGE TOWNSLITERS PER CAPITA PER DAYLOCAL COMMUNITIESLOCAL GOVERNMENT FRAMEWORKLOCAL SERVICE DELIVERYMAINTENANCE COSTSMANAGEMENT OF WATERMETROPOLITAN AREASMUNICIPAL COUNCILSMUNICIPAL INFRASTRUCTUREMUNICIPAL SERVICESMUNICIPAL WATERMUNICIPAL WATER SYSTEMSMUNICIPALITIESNATIONAL WATERPARTICIPATORY APPROACHESPIPED WATERPIT LATRINEPIT LATRINESPROGRAMSPROVIDING WATER SUPPLYPROVINCIAL GOVERNMENTPROVINCIAL GOVERNMENTSPROVISION OF SERVICESPUBLIC MANAGEMENTREHABILITATION OF WATERRESPONSIBILITY FOR WATERRESPONSIBILITY FOR WATER SUPPLYRIPARIANRURAL COMMUNITIESRURAL SANITATIONRURAL WATERRURAL WATER SCHEMESRURAL WATER SUPPLYSANITATION BUDGETSANITATION COVERAGESANITATION FACILITIESSANITATION FACILITYSANITATION INFRASTRUCTURESANITATION INVESTMENTSANITATION INVESTMENTSSANITATION POLICYSANITATION PROGRAMSANITATION SECTORSANITATION SERVICESSANITATION SOLUTIONSSENIOR MANAGEMENTSERVICE DELIVERYSERVICE PROVISIONSERVICE QUALITYSEWERAGESMALL TOWNSSUPPLY OF WATERSUSTAINABLE SERVICESTOILETTOILET FACILITIESTOILETSURBAN AREASURBAN SANITATIONURBAN WATERURBAN WATER SUPPLYURBAN WATER SUPPLY COVERAGEUSERSWASTEWATERWASTEWATER DISCHARGEWASTEWATER TREATMENTWATER AFFAIRSWATER BOARDSWATER BUDGETSWATER COVERAGEWATER INFRASTRUCTUREWATER LOSSESWATER MANAGERSWATER POLICYWATER PROJECTSWATER QUALITYWATER QUALITY MANAGEMENTWATER RESOURCEWATER RESOURCESWATER RIGHTSWATER SCARCITYWATER SCHEMESWATER SECTORWATER SERVICEWATER SERVICESWATER SOURCESWATER SUPPLYWATER SUPPLY ASSETSWATER SUPPLY SERVICEWATER SUPPLY SYSTEMSWATER SYSTEMSWATER TARIFFWATER UTILITIES10.1596/17752
