WaterAid - Partnership Programme Agreement |
In April 2005, a 6 year Partnership Programme Agreement (PPA) was agreed
between WaterAid and DFID. The PPA provides WaterAid with guaranteed strategic
funding of £1.25 million per annum for the first 3 years (funding for the last
3 years of the arrangement will be agreed in due course).
The current arrangement follows on from an original PPA agreed in April 2002.
This provided funding of £2.25 million over the period 2002/03 to 2004/05.
The agreed outcomes of the PPA 2005 are:
- Increased prioritisation of the water and sanitation sector in spending by
government in 15 countries where WaterAid is operational, and ensuring inclusion
of the poor in the 2015 MDG targets.
- DFID supported to play an effective and active role in the water and
sanitation sectors in the 15 target countries, including the implementation of
DFID's Water Action Plan.
- Water and sanitation issues promoted within other sectors including health,
education and livelihoods.
- Local government and municipal capacity increased, improving the
accountability of service providers through greater transparency and
participation.
- Increased awareness and understanding among the UK public of development
issues, in particular the relationship between water and sanitation, and
development
