英文摘要 | The fastest pathway to long-term sustainability, even prosperity, of the water utilities sector is establishing good performance in the present-day. Good governance, and financial governance as part of this, is key to unlocking the water utility sector’s potential to become a sustainable and modern service industry. ;SummaryThe World Economic Forum in collaboration with the Global Water Leaders Group have demonstrated that $217 billion a year is spent on water and wastewater utilities in low income countries, but inadequate access to water and sanitation inflicts losses of $384 billion on the global economy (2017). Put simply, remaining with the status quo of deteriorating water infrastructure is bad business. The question follows: how can water utilities in Sub-Saharan Africa plan to achieve this more efficient, less burdensome, financially healthy sector which will support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly Goal 6, in a timely fashion? What’s at stake for appropriate water tariffing? The fastest pathway to long-term sustainability, even prosperity, of the water utilities sector is establishing good performance in the present-day. Good governance, and financial governance as part of this, is key to unlocking the water utility sector’s potential to become a sustainable and modern service industry. The Africa-EU Water Partnership Project (AEWPP) is a joint undertaking by the European Union, the African Ministers Council on Water (AMCOW) and the Government of Sweden through Sida that aims to enhance the financial viability of water infrastructure projects in Africa by making more public and private capital accessible for water-related infrastructure projects and encouraging and supporting African governments to invest in water governance through capacity building. AEWPP is financed by the European Commission and project implementation is assigned to the Stockholm International Water Institute (SIWI).
