Infrastructure – Water Management
Almost fifty percent of the developing world’s population – 2.5 billion people – lack improved sanitation facilities, and almost 1 billion people still use unsafe drinking water sources, and even those with access often receive unsafe and inadequate service. Infrastructure upgrade requirements on a global level for potable water management is ever increasing.
The Opportunity
In an infrastructure intensive sector, improving access and service quality to meet this goal cannot be done without massive investments. Around the developing world, the water sector appears chronically under-funded and inefficient. In this context, Public-private partnerships (PPPs) can be viewed as one of the tools (among others) available to governments for improving the performance and financial sustainability of the water sector.
