International Symposium on Sustainable Cities: Empowering Local Governments through Capacity Building and Knowledge Sharing 26 -28 September 2013, Incheon, Republic of Korea Meeting Urban Sanitation Targets : Political Commitments and Infrastructure Investments Dr. Kulwant Singh Regional Advisor Urban Basic Services Branch, UN-Habitat 1 www. unhabitat. org
Sources of Funds for water • Water Users: Households, Farmers & Businesses Householders invest their cash, labour and materials in wells, pipes, basic sanitation and other facilities. Farmers invest large sums in tubewells, pumps and surface irrigation systems, either on their own or as members of associations and user groups. Industrial and commercial firms often develop their own water supplies and effluent treatment facilities. Some large firms even supply the general population. Users also cross-subsidise each other through paying different tariffs. • Informal suppliers. In cities where growth has outstripped the public network, local entrepreneurs, often acting outside the law, fill the vacuum by selling water in bulk from tankers— or in containers and bottles. 2
Sources of Funds for Water • Public water authorities and utilities fund recurrent spending and some new investment from revenues provided by user charges (gross operating cash flow), loans and sometimes public subsidies. • Private companies, either local or foreign, providing funds from sources similar to public utilities, plus equity injection. • Non-governmental organisations and local communities, raising funds from voluntary private contributions or grants from international agencies. • Local banks and other financial institutions offer shortterm or medium-term loans at market rates. • International banks and export credit agencies, providing larger volumes of finance than local sources, against corporate guarantees or project cash flow 3
Sources of Funds for water • International aid from multilateral and bilateral sources, available as loans on concessional terms or grants • Multilateral financial institutions: Loans on near-market terms • Environmental and Water and Sanitation Trust Funds • National Central and Local governments, providing subsidies, guarantees of loans, and proceeds of bond issues 4
The sanitation “value chain” Environmental focus MDG focus Value chain 5 Demand creation Collection Transport Treatment Disposal / Re-use Types of services Main actors Promote sanitation , create demand, community organisation On-site with reuse • Local governments • CBOs, NGOs Sewer connectio ns On-site w/o reuse • Households (investors) • Masons • Utilities • Pit-latrine emptiers (manual emptying, trucks, etc) • Utilities (sewers) Partial on -site treatment Treatm ent Plants Decentralised treatment facilities Re-use (energy, agriculture) Environment • Local governments • Utilities • SSIPs • Local governments • Local farmers, etc. .
Financing Sanitation - Main challenges • Unrealistic plans and inadequate finance; “political considerations” given higher priority; No monitoring of Plans or implementation • Fragmented financing channels • Difficult to charge for an “immaterial” service, with low or unexpressed demand • Lack of clarity on what funds should be used for • Evidence of “wasted” hardware subsidies • Mis-allocation of funds across the value chain: “too much” for wastewater treatment rather than basic sanitation • On-site sanitation: • Households are supposed to be main investors in sanitation but get limited support • Insufficient focus on environmental impacts of poor sanitation and associated economic losses 6
Need for Leveraging local resources • For countries to achieve economically feasible levels: Sector Expenditure to be around 2 to 3 percent of GDP. • To enable different levels of service – Public funds should focus on basic access • To enable rehabilitation/ augmentation in existing projects • To contribute for the development of the financial sector through new business lines in water projects for micro-finance and domestic finance institutions 7
Mobilizing Domestic and Private Resources Public-private partnership International debt financing Domestic capital markets Domestic tax revenue and user fees 8
Financing Sanitation Services • Directing domestic resources and donor support to areas of greatest need and greatest impact • Revenue transfers from central government to local authorities • Direct access to capital markets by local authorities 9
Financing Sanitation Services • Mobilization of financial support to bankable project and programme proposals • Cost recovery policy • Micro credit schemes 10

Need for Adequate Sustainable Access • Shelter and human settlements are central to the pursuit of the water and sanitation targets of the MDGs • Strategies for service delivery need to be differentiated to match the different types of human settlements • Future design of human settlements should aim at mixed income settlements rather than differentiated income settlement types • Most of the world’s people without adequate access to sustainable water and sanitation services are the poor or people who live in rural areas and small urban settlements • Poor women and children in all types of human settlements face specific challenges in accessing clean water and adequate sanitation, and these challenges need to be better understood and appropriate remedies designed for them 15
Need for Bridging the Financial Gaps • External finance/ ODA should be grant-based, especially for delivery of service in urban centers in low-income countries. • Operating costs in all low-income countries need to be covered through grants or other instruments like output-based aid. • Small urban centers below the poverty line located in middle income countries may need a variety of instruments, including: o lifeline tariffs (such as those used in South Africa), o output-based loans buttressed by appropriate forms of external guarantees. • Domestic resource mobilization should be maximized ensuring that capital and operating costs are adequately funded. • Ensure that considerations of affordability are reconciled with the need to generate revenues from those that can afford to pay for service. • Wherever feasible, make trunk infrastructure publicly financed 16
Closing the Gap: Two Cardinal Sets of Principles • While ensuring the delivery of water and sanitation services is squarely the responsibility of each national government. But to be successful they will need, above all, determined leadership and the political will that is absolutely necessary to maintain the commitment that will be needed. • Given the record of delayed projects or initiatives that have been reversed, short duration projects, using fast track mechanisms, which begin to deliver safe and affordable water and sanitation, within the span of a political cycle can protect the interests of poor communities from the effects of political changes, which can result from a competitive political environment. 17
Need for Monitoring • Monitor trends and progress within the water supply and sanitation sector • Build national capacity for monitoring, and • Inform policy makers and civil society of the status of the sector. 18
What do we need to know… Understanding sanitation costs • Software costs: including all the costs, evaluating the comparative effectiveness of software support • Estimating lifecycle costs to guide appropriate investment (incorporating opex and maintenance costs) • Improve and redesign M&E frameworks so as to keep track of critical financing information Sources of financing • Assess drivers and constraints for investment at household level • Explore the potential for using “innovative” financing mechanisms, such as micro-finance • Identify how public finance can be better targeted • Leverage other financing sources (“social investors”) • Evaluate potential for “payments for environmental services” 19
What do we need to know… Understanding the potential for microfinance • Micro-finance schemes have potential to leverage substantial private (hh) investments BUT limited and mixed experiences in sanitation; • Need to understand why and how they can work to mobilize financing for MDGs with limited public funds: for households and for small-scale entrepreneurs; Allocating financing at the right “level” based on benefits • Where coverage is low, channeling financing to the utility may miss a large component of the “sanitation market”: financing households and small-scale entrepreneurs also to be considered • Where coverage is high, need to better understand the potential benefits from increasing treatment levels (at the extreme, evidence of some declining returns to further tightening standards) 20
Revolving Fund - Background and Context • UN-HABITAT established Revolving funds, as an Instrument of the Poor, for the construction of individual household toilets and community-managed water supply scheme in Madhya Pradesh; • In Lao PDR, another revolving fund for water connection and latrine construction set up • Revolving funds enable poor to avail credit for accessing WATSAN services. • Revolving funds also create demand for services and strengthen CBOs to actively participate to avail services and make them affordable. 21 Revolving Funds

Ratio of treated to untreated wastewater discharged into water bodies (March 2010) Source: UNEP/GRID-Arendal (http: //maps. grida. no/go/graphic/ratio-of-wastewater-treatment 1, a map by H. Ahlenius, adapted from a map by H. Ahlenius [http: //maps. grida. no/go/graphic/ratio -of-wastewater 38
Managing Wastewater in Asia • Around 80% of wastewater is discharged without treatment; • For region’s health and environmental sustainability goals, following four drivers are needed: (1) Knowledge Drive (2) Technology Drive Developing a compendium of solution options Developing information briefs on different technology options Four drivers for promoting Asia-Pacific Wastewater Management (3) Financing and Incentives Drive Preparation of Knowledge products on innovative business lines for sanitation (4) Awareness and Advocacy Drive Conducting regional and in-country sanitation dialogues Bottom line is to market wastewater management and reuse as an economically and financially viable business to substantially 39 accelerate both public and private investments
Wastewater as a Business • Wastewater must be seen as a resource with potential financial returns and opportunities for green employment; employment • It is critical to move away from the high energy solutions—or no treatment at all—toward something affordable and doable; doable • Turn towards decentralized wastewater treatment systems, especially systems in peri-urban and coastal communities and public markets; • Organic fertilizer from ecosan toilets has turned farmers into entrepreneurs; whereas Biogas digesters connected to sanitation entrepreneurs facilities produced cheap energy source in the region; • Innovative financing mechanisms provide incentives for households to invest in on-site sanitation systems and cities to invest in wastewater management systems; • Involve public-private partnership (PPP) for enabling environment and economic regulatory framework to reduce risks to the investment 40
Partnerships for Managing Wastewater • Household toilets only one component of the whole gamut of Sanitation ; • Sanitation also includes wastewater conveyance, treatment, and disposal or reuse, as well as maintenance of the assets and quality of service delivery; delivery • Managing wastewater does need provision of technical or engineering solutions besides understanding social, political and environmental complexities attached to it; • Business of sanitation requires a collaborative approach among the government, private sector, civil society and communities, and within the different levels of government from central to local administrations; • Partnerships essential for pooling the efforts and resources of the different partners to implement solution options; options • Forging effective and lasting partnerships for achieving Goals of Wastewater Management 41 41
