TPP Project: Basic Information  Project Name Tripartite Partnership Project  Project Start:Jan 2008  Duration: Initially 3 years now 4 years  Lead Agency:TREND Group  Main Partners:- Sector Ministries (MLGRD/MWRWH) - Sector Networks (CONIWAS, PRUSPA), - Agencies (PURC, GWCL/AVRL, CWSA) - Others (NWP, IRC, Safi Sana Ghana)  Pilot Areas: Ashaiman, Mankessim Huni Valley  Funding:- NWP (ICCO, A4A, SIMAVI), TREND - AFDB/AWF, MMDAs

TPP Project: Project Logic  Project Goal: Expanded access to improved WASH services in poor urban areas.  Project Objective: Build sector capacity for delivery of pro-poor WASH in urban areas.  Project Outcomes: - Local governments plan and implement/pro- poor WASH services using TPP approach - 3 pilot implementation areas served - Improved knowledge on innovatve management models, approaches and technologies for pro-poor WASH services delivery.

TPP Project Overall Project Components  Extensive Preparation over 2 years - Light Sector Assessments, Case Studies - 5 pilot Projects initially identified - 3 Projects selected following discussions with AWF  Pilot innovative approaches for WASH Services Delivery in: ASHAIMAN – MANKESSIM – HUNI VALLEY (AWF) Scope involves: Design, Construction, capacity building for innovative TPP-based O&M support  Learning and Sharing/ Creation of Enabling environment for Replication and Scaling-Up (NWP): - Consolidate lessons learnt and best practices - Support to knowledge Development and Sharing - Institutional development - Pro-poor advocacy

TPP Project Light Sector Studies and Case Studies  Mapping of existing profile and institutional models for water services delivery  Stakeholder analysis and Mapping of institutional, legal, policy and governance challenges to scaling-up.  Broad overview of promising approaches identified internationally (Global Review)  Analysis of Initial Studies and Identification of Options for Case Studies.  GIS maps of innovative approaches.  Detailed Case descriptions of selected “best innovative management approaches ”

TPP Project Overview of Pilot Projects  ASHAIMAN: p – inhabitants - 15 integrated cleansing sites built / rehabilitated, - EcoSan demonstrated, - Sustainable TPP based management model established  MANKESSIM: p – inhabitants - Public & household latrines, - Drainage, Solid waste collection, - SaniMart, EcoSan and biogas, - CLTS Approach, innovation marketing/financing of sanitation - Capacity builidng for TPP based O&M  HUNI VALLEY: p – inhabitants - 4 public latrines + water supply built / rehabilitated, household latrines - Microfinance loans, O&M

TPP Project TPP Approach in Pilot Implementation  MMDA’s ownership and management of Pilot Projects: MoUs have been signed with MMDAs and Task Officers trained.  District and National Learning Alliances: Platform for joint planning, decision making, and knowledge sharing  Consultants, contractors and operators: Private sector partners at all stages of implementation selected through competitive bidding.  NGOs/CSOs: Project Implementation, community mobilisation, hygiene/bahavioral change.

TPP Project Learning and Sharing/ Creation of Enabling environment for Replication and Scaling-Up (NWP):  Consolidate lessons learnt and best practices, Support to Knowledge Development and Sharing  Ongoing documentation of project experiences  Information materials (case studies, factsheets, policy briefs etc)  Development of Toolkit for Project Implmentation  Dissemination through library, websites, NLAP, Various sector fora etc.  Institutional development  RCN establishment and develeopment  Ongoing sector networking,  Policy dialogues/NLAP  Pro-poor Advocacy  Policy dialogues on pro-poor issues  Media events  Advocacy events, collaboration with other NGOs etc

TPP Project: Project Risks  Delay in Implementation  Capacity: Challenges with Replication of best practices and Scaling-Up  Reluctance: Up-take of innovations by Sector Agencies How will Project deal with Risks?  District/Sector Ownership of the process of TPP Project implementation  Learning alliance approach to ensure Sector involvement in defining priority learning areas.  Emphasis on development and dissemination of tested project support materials and toolkit.

WORKSHOP CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVES WHY ARE WE HERE?

Outcomes of Sector Assessments, Case Studies Outputs so far:  Working paper on mapping of management models in Ghana (including GIS maps)  Working paper on global best practices of pro-poor management models  Institutional mapping working paper  8 case studies carried out on innovative management models for WASH services delivery  Synthesised Report on the Case study with recommendations

Other Knowledge/Project Support Materials  Currently Other factsheets/policy briefs are in the pipeline.  All exsiting draft materials to be completed by December 2010  Draft Tool-kit for planning and implementation of pro-poor pilot projects are being developed. Draft version of toolkit will be ready by October,  The Toolkit is desgned to support support establishment of management structures and capacity development for pro-poor WASH governance in the three pilot towns  Toolkit will be applied in the field and monitored/updated based on field experiences. Finlised version will be ready by end of TPP project in March 2012.

Context to this Workshop  All Project reports are being packaged for dissemination as part of ongoing product development activities.  Draft reports and case studies have been complete in all cases- available as working documents on website (  Currently editing, revisions and packaging are on-going to finalise reports before mass dissemination.  The TPP Project’s Learning alliance is expected to play a key role in the process of review and finalisation by to ensure that outputs meet demand and expectations: The LA will play role of : Reviewing the unfinishsed knowledge materials Providing feedback- especially in terms of content Providing suggestions for packaging and mode of dissmeination

Objectives of this Worksop  Sharing and verification of TPP findings on light sector review and case studies  Review of findings on the different management models  Obtain specific inputs for completion of the synthesis document (on management models) Expected Outputs  Sector stakeholders better informed about the TPP Project  Input for the completion of the synthesised document  Workshop communique
