Abstract | With scarce resources and an overwhelming agenda of development priorities, how can a multilateral development organisation such as the African Development Bank (AfDB) simultaneously: 1. Help African countries strengthen their WASH sector M&E capacities. 2. Ensure that it pursues the path towards a results-based organisation, accountable to Development Partners (DPs) and beneficiaries, focused on efficiency and effectiveness in its interventions and knowledge-based in its strategic orientation? The new M&E strategy of the Department of Water and Sanitation (OWAS) of the African Development Bank (AfDB) is an attempt to respond pragmatically to this challenging task. This paper introduces the strategy and describes the current status of implementation and its first results. |
