1 WATER AND SANITATION IN AFRICA: TRENDS, CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES Ousman Gajigo African Development Bank

2 PRESENTATION OUTLINE Discuss Trends in Access to Improved Water and Sanitation in Africa. Macroeconomic and other socioeconomic correlates. Implications for PPPs in Water and Sanitation Sector in Africa Some evidence on the region s experience to date.

3 ACCESS TO IMPROVED WATER SOURCES

4 % Access to Improved Water Source REGIONAL DIFFERENCES IN ACCESS TO IMPROVED WATER SOURCE

5 RURAL-URBAN DIFFERENCE Significant differences in access between urban and rural areas. Significant difference in the kinds of improved water sources available.

6 URBAN-RURAL DIFFERENCE Households using Wells, Boreholes, Hand-pumps, Rainwater Households with Access to Piped Water into Residence/Yard/Plot 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% % 21% 49% 49% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 43% 40% 16% % 0% Urban Areas Rural Areas 0% Urban Areas Rural Areas

10 POSSIBLE EXPLANATION FOR LACK OF CORRELATION WITH GDP GROWTH High Population Growth Possible lack of inclusiveness in the recent GDP growth in Africa. Largely Commodity price-driven GDP Growth.

19 IMPLICATIONS FOR PPPS IN THE WATER AND SANITATION SECTOR Service/management contract Relatively common in WSS in Africa. Can lead to Improvements in quality of services. Increase in access not guaranteed. Lease/Concession Less common in Africa in WSS in Africa Can lead to Improvements in quality of services. Increase in access likely.
