Learning and adaptation is about preparedness to innovate and to use the insights and lessons generated to drive change across the WASH system at all levels and in all operating contexts.
Monitoring is one of the key building blocks for an effective WASH system, which generates the information and feedback that facilitate adaptive change and well as planning and regulation.
On the whole, stakeholder monitoring tends to be disjointed, with the diverse actors failing to coalesce their efforts around a common set of indicators. And there is a conspicuous lack of regulation of the rural water sector.
