BACKGROUND OF THE PROGRAMME

The national Rural Water Supply, Sanitation and Irrigation Program (Ru-WatSIP) is one of the six closelyinterlinked National Development Programs of Ministry of Rural Rehabilitation and Development(MRRD) in Afghanistan. The inception of the national Ru-WatSIP dates back with setting up of othernational programs at MRRD. The core concept for having national programs under the framework ofMRRD was to create a more strategic, long-term approach and capacity building in order to develop andimprove coordination between organizational actors in humanitarian aid, local governance, recovery anddevelopment in Afghanistan.

The Water Supply, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) is currently implemented through differentexecution modalities:

1. National Execution (NE) by the Ministry of Rural Rehabilitation and Development (MRRD)2. Partners by United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), Ministry of Public Health (MoPH),

Ministry of Education (MoE), International Non-Governmental Organizations (INGOs), and NonGovernmental Organizations (NGOs)

Under the NE, which began its activities in 2003, three areas such as access to safe water supply,sanitation services and hygiene promotion were implemented by MRRD/Ru-WatSIP respectively.

The MRRD/Ru-WatSIP, with support from UNICEF, Afghanistan Peace and Reintegration Program(APRP)/United Nations Development Program (UNDP), Norway, Spanish, World Bank (WB) andMinistry of Finance (MoF) has been executing projects to provide water supply and sanitation services inrural areas. The responsibility of Ru-WatSIP in this regard is to formulate strategy, develop policy, plan,coordinate and implement the rural water supply, sanitation and hygiene promotion activitiesundertaken by private sectors, INGs/NGOs and the rural communities namely CommunityDevelopment Councils (CDCs) and District Development Assemblies (DDAs).

Initially, Ru-WatSIP was designed to focus on three priority areas, covering 27 provinces particularlyimpacted during the post-conflict and transitional period, including areas with populations directlyaffected by years of war and internal conflict, the return of refugees and Internally Displaced Peoples(IDPs), and areas hit by natural disasters such as drought.

However, soon after the program was launched, Ru-WatSIP was extended to cover the entire countryto respond to emergency needs of vulnerable populations in other areas of the country. As both theministry and the Ru-WatSIP have increased their program management capacity, additional projects forrural development have been formulated and implemented under the Ru-WatSIP framework.


PROGRAM OVERVIEW

The National Rural Water Supply, Sanitation and Irrigation Program (Ru-WatSIP) was established toprovide safe potable water and sanitation facilities as a basic need for all rural inhabitants of the country.Accessing to safe water and sanitation facilities in turn would result in a significant impact on the healthsituation in rural areas by introducing hygiene behaviors’ change. As one of the national program to benationally executed through the Ministry of Rural Rehabilitation and Development (MRRD), theprogram’s policy, design and implementation is led by MRRD, which also provides its generalcoordination and the oversight of all project activities. MRRD has maintained a firm commitment to theprogram’s development, and under the National Execution (NE) modality, is successfully steering andmanaging Ru-WatSIP.

The provision of water and sanitation facilities to rural communities in Afghanistan has been andcontinues to be the primary activities of the development aid community. Until recently the Water andSanitation Group (WSG), comprising many of the stakeholders, effectively coordinated the work carriedout in this sector. As a first and important step, MRRD developed in 2004 a National Policy Frameworkfor the rural water supply and sanitation sector. That policy document was revised in 2007 and then in2010 into the present Water Supply, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) policy framework. The currentWASH policy integrates the successful methods and practices currently used by the key implementingagencies including relevant United Nations (UNs) agencies and NGOs.

The main objectives of the Ru-WatSIP WASH policy are per the following:

Improve access of the rural population to 25 litres per capita per day (LPCD) from 27% to 50%in 2014, and 70% to 100% in 2016 and 2020 respectively and improve potable quality of drinkingwater based on World Health Organization (WHO) standards.

Make all villages/rural communities in the country 100% Open Defecation Free (ODF) and fullysanitized by 2020, and 50% and 70% by 2014 and 2016 respectively.

Provide hygiene education with appropriate follow-up activities in schools, households andcommunities for sustained behavior change and adoption of safe hygiene practices.

The 2010 WASH policy will be reviewed in the end of 2014 in order to address the progress made andto address new challenges. In this manner, suitable changes can be made to the policy if required, andstrategies and investments can be modified accordingly. For this means, the national Ru-WatSIP plannedto recruit an international consultant who would start working in revision of 2010 WASH policy. Prioractivities, such as one day preparation workshop has been held in MRRD conference hall by national Ru-WatSIP. In this workshop, sector ministries, I/NGOs and UNICEF were participated to form a taskforcewho then work with international consultant to revise the policy.

Ru-WatSIP is composed of seven main units:

HYGINE PROMOTION UNIT: Adopt people-oriented strategies in priority areas through whichcommunity members play an active role in planning and organization of hygiene education.

PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION UNIT: This section divided into two sub-sections namelyengineering and implementation sections. The engineering section is responsible for survey and design ofprojects in different provinces, while the implementation unit has the project implementationresponsibility.


CAPCITY DEVELOPMENT UNIT: Effective structures and systems for training of WASH staffincluding government partners, NGOs, and INGOs providing technical training sessions on well drillingmethods, Management Information System (MIS)/Geographical Information System (GIS), geo physicsinvestigation, WASH in emergency, remote sensing, water quality monitoring, survey and design of bigand small fed pipe schemes, etc.

MONITORING AND EVALUATION UNIT: Accountable and effective follow-up and monitoringof project activities are established and functional since September 2013.

WATER QUALITY CONTROL UNIT: The chemical/physical and bacteriological laboratoryestablished and is functional since 18th July 2011 for testing of basic 29 water quality parameters.

MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM UNIT: The Management Information System (MIS)unit established and has been working on a web-based project reporting system allowing visitors toselect filtering criteria and download dynamically generated reports in excel format.

ADVOCACY AND COMMUNICATION UNIT: In late September 2013, the CommunicationUnit (CU) of national Ru-WatSIP has established and has worked to support national Ru-WatSIP forinternal and external reflection of project’s activities.


MAJOR ACTIVITES AND ACHIVEMENTS

1. HYGIENE PROMOTION UNIT

The Hygiene Promotion Unit (HPU) of Ru-WatSIP implements the Community Led Total Sanitation(CLTS) approach in a community to facilitate the villagers to assess their own sanitation condition,realize hygiene and sanitation related problems, propose solutions and take action without any subsidyand financial aid. The objective of the first step is conversion of the target community into an OpenDefecation Free (ODF) environment where every house in the community has a hygienic latrine, use it,maintain it, clean it and wash their hands with water and soap after toilet use.

In the 2nd quarter of 2014, the HPU has done one refresher training for Helmand CLTS team. In thistraining a total of seven people including CLTS team members, one provincial officers, one supervisorsand five facilitators were participated. In addition, an initial CLTS training was conducted in Samanganprovince in which five CLTS staff from Baghlan, five CLTS staff from Takhar and six CLTS staff fromSamangan provinces participated. During this quarter, a total of 15 villages verified in Bamyan, Daykundi,Parwan, Samangan and Helmand provinces. The CLTS program started in two districts of Parwanprovince (Sayed Khel and Khalazayee of Charikar) in late March and the actual data collection has doneat the beginning of April 2014. Around nine villages has also certified as ODF villages in April. In lateJune 2014, the HPU conducted an initial CLTS training for new recruited staff in Badghis province.

In addition, the HPU recruited the CLTS staff in different provinces which includes eight facilitators andtwo supervisors in Badkhshan, eight facilitators and two supervisors in Kunar, eight facilitators and twosupervisors in Badghis and four facilitators in Helmand provinces.

There are various WASH projects which are supported through governmental and donor supportswhich include Ministry of Finance (MoF), Spanish Agency for International Cooperation andDevelopment and UNICEF.

MOF PROJECTS:Project achievements supported by Ministry of Finance (MoF) for WASH:

During the 2nd quarter of 2014, the implementation of MoF-supported rural water and sanitationprojects have been increased from 17 provinces to 18 provinces (Badakhshan, Baghlan, Faryab, Ghazni,Herat, Jawzjan, Kabul, Kapisa, Kandahar, Khost, Kunduz, Logar Nangarhar, Parwan, Panjsher, Samangan,Takhar, and Wardak).

FIGURE 1: MOF SUPPORTED PROJECTS IN 18 TARGETED PROVINCES


Injil is one of the safest districts of Herat province.People of this district, most of whom are IDPs, hadbeen using unsafe drinking water for a long time. So,water – borne diseases were prevalent there, andresidents of that district spent a large sum of theirmoney on treatments of their family members,particularly, children. Besides, children were not ableto attend schools regularly since they had to bringwater from faraway place though it was not safe fordrinking.

The problems of these people got rather worst whenmortality of eight people including women and childrenmade headlines in media. These eight people had diedbecause of drinking unsafe water.

It was then that the National Rural Water Supply,Sanitation and Irrigation Program (Ru-WatSIP) ofMinistry of Rural Rehabilitation and Development(MRRD) implemented a solar piped – scheme projectin this district which costed AFN 2, 340, 250 and wasfunded by UNICEF. This project provided safe drinkingwater for more than 150 families at their doors.

Ahmad Khan, Arbab (leader) of Kamar Kalagh villageappreciates the national Ru-WatSIP activities in hisvillage, and says, “Before the implementation of thiswater supply project, all people used river’s water fordrinking, and many people suffered from various typesof water-borne diseases, even a number of people losttheir lives. In addition, children were not able to go toschools since they spent most of their time bringingwater from far rivers. Per completion of this project,village people enabled to use safe water for drinking,their health is safe and they don’t have to spendmoney on treatment of water – born diseases”.

He adds that since the completion of this project inApril 2014, many positive changes have been occurredin their village: Their health has been improved andchildren are no longer obliged to waste their time on

Interpretation of Hydro chemical Data: This training course was conducted for 16 people (males)who attended from RuWatSIP/ MRRD, MoPH, MEW, DACAAR, Ministry of Mine (MOM), AGS, PRRDand Norwegian Committee for Afghanistan (NCA) organizations.

Planning and Implementation of Hydro geological Survey: This training was conducted for 19people (males) whom participated from RuWatSIP/MRRD, MEW, DACAAR, PRRD, NCA, MoM, andAGS organizations.

The comparison of capacity development training programs held in the 2nd quarter presents a differentincrease in both the number of participants and training courses. For example; in the 1st quarter of 2014,eight training courses held and 220 people (81.4%) male and (18.6%) female were participated. While in2nd quarter of 2014, a total of six training courses held in which (92.9%) male and (7.1%) female wereparticipated. The total percentage shows a remarkable increase in the number of participants but lowpercentage in number of women’s participation. Low number of female attendees is reported that in 2nd

quarter the invitees were only from WASH sector and did not include universities which have morewomen engineers.

The Hygiene Promotion Unit of Ru-WatSIPimplements the CLTS approach in a community tofacilitate the villagers to assess their own sanitationstatus, realize hygiene and sanitation related problems,propose solutions and take action without any subsidyand financial aid. The objective of the first step isconversion of the target community into an ODFenvironment where every house in the community hasa hygienic latrine, use it, maintain it, clean it and washtheir hands with water and soap after toilet use.

Recently, this approach has been implementing in HajiRostam Khan Village located in the center of Helmandprovince, Lashkargah. After the villagers were givensome information about this approach, all of themwere successfully triggered for stopping defection inopen areas. The people of this village showed theirpreparedness to build new latrines for themselvesalong with hand washing facilities without any financialassistance/ subsidies.

Bibi Najeeba, a resident of this village and member ofHaji Mohammad’s family, having participated in thisapproach, decided to sell her handmade embroideryand make a latrine for herself. Thus, she sold each ofher hand-made embroidery with AFs 5,500 and built alatrine in her house.

She appreciates the activities of this approach andrecommends it for other villages till all the villages areODF and the prevalence of diseases is avoided.

4. WATER QUALITY CONTROL UNIT

During the 2nd quarter of 2014, the Water Quality Control Unit (WQCU) had a field trip to Parwanand Kapisa provinces and collected water samples from 16 wells of Kuchi projects. These samplesincluded three water samples from main sources and 13 water samples from alternate sources. TheWQCU then analyzed and prepared the final report for 16 water samples of Kuchi projects. The resultsshown that there was no physical and chemical contamination, while the bacteriological contaminationwas positive and higher than the permissible limit of WHO and Afghanistan standards. Therefore, theWQC team recommended disinfection/chlorination of the water points.

In 2nd quarter of 2014, the WQC team based on 2014 annual plan had a field trip to Ghor province andcollected the water samples from covered districts which is shown in below table.

After collection of water samples, the WQC team examined water samples of Ghor province to checkthe 27 physical/ chemical and bacteriological parameters. The WQC team analyzed the collectedsamples on May and June and the result will be come out after taking the Ion balance.

In addition, during this quarter WQCU received and analyzed the 16 water samples from Kabul andPaktia provinces (10 samples from Kabul & six samples from Paktia) which are attached in (Annex 7).The water sample of Kabul districts did not represent any physical and chemical contamination. All ofphysicochemical parameters were less than the permissible limit of Afghanistan national drinking waterquality standard. Similarly, results for bacteriological parameters showed that in three samples whichwere taken from shallow wells (hand pump) and deep well were negative. Therefore, the WQC team ofnational Ru-WatSIP assured the safety of water sources for people to drink and use it in daily basis.However, bacteriological parameters in seven other water samples from pipe-scheme and hand pumpwere positive, so the WQC team did not assured the safety of water for drinking purpose. The sixwater samples taken from different districts of Paktia province was examined for purpose of chemicalparameters and the resultants showed, out of six parameters, five chemical parameters including(Calcium, Magnesium, Sulfate, Chloride and Total hardness) concentration were higher than thepermissible limit of Afghanistan standard and six parameters including (Potassium, Sodium, Calciumhardness, Bicarbonate, Carbonate and Alkalinity) showed less than the permissible limit of Afghanistannational drinking water quality standard.

In this quarter, five members (four males and one female) of WQC unit were participated in onetraining workshop called (Interpretation of hydro chemical data) which was held in national conferenceRu-WatSIP conference room.

6. MANAGEMNET INFORMATION SYSTEM/GEOGRAPHCIAL INFORMAITONSYSTEM

In 2nd quarterly of 2014, the Management Information System/Geographical Information System(MIS/GIS) unit of national Ru-WatSIP has done the follow up activities of newly established MIS systemwithin the program. The MIS unit purchased the necessary equipments needed for sever setup and stillin process of preparing an external power backup system so that to avoid electricity issues.

Additionally, the recruitment of MIS developer was completed during this quarter. The recruitment ofMIS developer resulted in development and functionality of “Water-Tracker”. The functionality of“Water-Tracker” has been useful in MIS as it works through an (Interactive Voice Response) system.This system in turn helps all WASH sector partners to submit their reports on malfunctioning of anyregistered water points by using mobile phone. For follow up of reports on malfunctioning water points,the MIS unit has assigned a focal point who distinguishes the report and based on that assigns aMechanic to check the water points in the field and troubleshoots the problem.

During 2nd quarter of 2014, two persons from MIS participated in three different training workshopsheld at national Ru-WatSIP conference room. In 2nd training which was about GPS processing and use ofGPS enables cameras; the MIS team were covered training session and helped the participants whoattended from Bamyan, Paktya, Paktika, Daykundi and Ghor provinces to learn the use of differentsoftware, how to migrate data from cameras into GIS and how to use the GPS enabled digital cameras.At the end of this training, GPS image video recorded and then distributed to participants. The lasttraining was on use of online MIS/GIS and it was conducted for three days from 19-21 May 2014. In thistraining the technical staff of Afghanistan Reliable Technology Services (ARTS) explained the use ofonline MIS/GIS to the newly recruited Management Information Developer (MID).

As a follow up of 1st quarter, the MIS technical terms’ translation into local languages which werediscussed with different parties and compared with MAIL, finalized in the 2nd quarter. A proofread copyof translated terms in draft version was prepared and is used in the local interfaces of national Ru-WatSIP MIS.

In addition, the CLTS database which was developed in the 1st quarter of 2014, kept updated in thisquarter, so that to oversee any upcoming issues and take actions accordingly. During 2nd quarter,developing of a database for other sections of national Ru-WatSIP including engineering, HumanResource (HR) and finance sections were considered and planned as well. The newly designed databasefor other units would better handle their data activities.

Ru-WatSIP through financial support of NORPLAN, designed the Faryab hydro-geological maps. Thesemaps were shared with international experts and their feedbacks were incorporated. Since then a totalof nine maps was finalized and these maps were used in a manual which is prepared by a seniorinternational hydro geologist of NORPLAN named Mr. David Banks. The figure below represents afinalized map of Faryab water points with geological background.

7. ADVOCACY AND COMMUNICATION

In 2nd quarter of 2014, the Communication Unit (CU) of national Ru-WatSIP finalized the English page ofnational Ru-WatSIP official web-page and more work still continues on developing of Pashtu and Daripages. Outreach has focused on print and electronic media, public information publications and externalrelations activities, while the Sanitation and Water for All (SWA) meeting held in April 10th 2014created an opportunity to discuss and review the progress and challenges made against 2012-2014commitments.


In 2014, 180 media packages including Brochures, Factsheets, Success Stories, Photo Gallery in DVD,and Policy Papers were prepared for CDU as well as other related conferences which covered all theprogram activities.

Public information materials produced and regularly updated by CU, including Factsheet, Brochures,Field Reports, and Briefing papers, (Brochures, Factsheets, Success Stores, monthly and quarterlyreports) are available in three languages and English versions uploaded on the national Ru-WatSIP.Communication Unit also printed document folders, and large posters, photographs to use forprofessional preparations for Public Relations (PR) events. Increasing national Ru-WatSIP’s global reach,for the first time the CU, has been developed the national Ru-WatSIP 2013 project’s activities booklet,which will be shared with all internal units, MRRD and I/NGO partners. The booklet prepared in English,Dari and Pashtu version. In 2nd quarter, around 100 English versions of booklet distributed to donors,sector partners and related line ministries.

In 2nd quarter of 2014, the recruitment of two Reporting Officers were completed to support nationalRu-WatSIP for internal and external reflection of project’s activities and providing all relevant materialinto local languages. The recruitment of reporting officers in CU is of high importance as they bothsupport the national Ru-WatSIP in translation of communication materials and HPU documents intonational languages. The translation of program reports and public information materials would then helpinternal units of Ru-WatSIP as well as RRDs to find out better concept of Ru-WatSIP activities andprogresses which have been made so far.


SECTOR PARTNERS:

The national Ru-WatSIP has contracted with different partners who are representing both fromI/NGOs. These partners aimed to promote WASH activities inside Afghanistan. Currently more than 10I/NGOs partners, support Ru-WatSIP in implementation of different projects. The main achievementsdone by Ru-WatSIP partners in 2nd quarter of 2014 are summarized in the following section.

SWEDISH COMMITTEE FOR AFGHANISTAN (SCA):

In 2nd quarter of 2014, SCA was able to establish two wells in Aliabad district of Kunduz province. As aresult of this wells around 220 of people will be benefited from safe drinking water. In addition, SCAplanned to construct latrines, conduct hygiene education and hand pump mechanics training in nextquarter for the following provinces:

1. Laghman-Qarghaye and Mehtarlam districts2. Takhaleqan to Khanabad3. Wardak- Jalrez and Maidan Shar


ACTION CONTRE LA FAIM (ACF):

The ACF activities in Afghanistan focus in two provinces including (Samangan and Ghor). In 2nd quarter of 201, ACF has completed a number of waterrelated projects in Ghor province. The completed projects include 23 hand pump construction and 28 wells rehabilitation in Ghor province. Further detailabout number of beneficiaries is shown in below table.

HELVETAS SWISS INTER-COOPERATION (HIS)-WASH PROJECT

The HELVETAS WASH project focuses on delivering the soft- and hardware components with regard towater, sanitation and hygiene to schools and Madrassas and to communities based on needs assessmentsand mobilization for planning and commitment. Furthermore the WASH project supports districtstakeholders with basic tools to coordinate work towards achieving WASH minimum standards andemphasis is given to test different modalities for strengthening Operation and Maintenance (O&M).The project focuses its activities in the three adjacent districts of Ruye Doab (Samangan), TalawaBarfak(Baghlan) and Kahmard (Bamyan), where HSI has established a long standing relationship of trust withthe communities and district level authorities by implementing different projects since 2006.

The activities within the water, sanitation and hygiene working area enhance and complement theimpact of the livelihoods and education projects, HSI is implementing in the target districts, andsynergies between projects as well as between project set up and human resources and equipment arereaped.

During 2nd quarter of 2014, the HIS completed the school WASH database (complete district –wideassessment of WASH status of all 41 schools) of Kahmard district of Bamyan province and shared withthe department of education at district level to use as planning and coordination tool with donors andactors. Additionally, one school WASH workshop conducted in Karimak district of Bamyan provincesecondary school. The construction of one tube well in Karimak district in secondary school completedthrough which around (359 students) would be benefited. Further details about HIS activities in theseprovinces are attached in Annexes 7 and 8. As it can be seen the second quarter of 2014 was usedmainly for planning and mobilization which is why the amount of budget spent is lower.

IMPLEMENTATION CHALLENGES

In 2nd quarter of 2014, the program experienced several implementation challenges, and has carefullyassessed and analyzed them in order to determine the necessary measures to take in addressing theseissues.

PROJECT RISKS AND ISSUES

RISKSSecurity: During the course of implementation of projects, security remains the single most prominentconstraint for the program activities and has caused delay in a number of development projects.

ISSUESNatural Disasters and Climate Change: Natural disasters like floods and droughts which are themost common phenomena in the country has been aggravated by climate change appeared as a challengein front of WASH infrastructures. Due to protracted drought water table dropped down, some of thewater supply infrastructures including wells, springs and Karezes run dry. Furthermore, based on thefield evidence, some of the water points washed away by flash floods. Based on the anecdotal data 25-30% water supply infrastructures are dysfunctional. Further to the technical issues like inappropriatetechnologies, poor qualities and site selection, social problems such as lack of awareness also becomeone of the deterring factors in the mentioned drawback.

To help overcome the challenges originated from natural disasters and climate change, in line withWASH policy, the national Ru-WatSIP spelled out the importance of integration of Disaster RiskReduction (DRR) into the WASH services in the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed withsector I/NGOS. Also Ru-WatSIP, through its engineers, surveyors, designers, hydro-geologist, andpracticing of CLTS approach striving to overcome the problem of site selection, technology option andfunctionality of the water points.

As part of the global launch by the United Nations (UNs) and its partners the humanitarian communityin Afghanistan in 2013 is seeking $406 million through the Common Humanitarian Action Plan (CHAP)to provide the most vulnerable people with essential, life-saving aid. This amount was planned to beused during the emergencies e.g. (floods, earthquakes, etc.) as part of the humanitarian aid. The projectsfunded through this mechanism is mostly construction of new water points, rehabilitation of nonfunctional water sources and provision of emergency water supply and hygiene kits to those areas whoare affected by the natural disasters.

Procurement: Based on the agreement between MRRD and MoF for construction of WASH facilitiesfollowing the National Solidarity Programme (NSP) procurement law, construction of water supply,sanitation and hygiene projects are contracting directly with CDCs and DDAs up to USD $60,000 toinvolve the people in decision making, sustainability of the projects and community ownership, while onthe other hand construction of big and complex WASH projects are still following the governmentprocurement law and processing through MRRD procurement department and the contracts are signedwith construction companies, private sectors and NGOS.

Low capacity of both the government and private sector at sub national level: Low level ofeducated staff related to water supply and sanitation, lack of a sector wide capacity development plan includinghuman, institutional and enabling environment, low level of human resource management and logistical capacities,lack of education and training opportunities for the WASH staff are the main factors counted so far.

Monitoring and Evaluation: Weak monitoring and evaluation caused a severe constraint onmonitoring of project and collecting information from different offices and units. Ru-WatSIP re-established the M&E unit in late September 2013 and since then has made a concerted effort to improvethe scope and quality of its monitoring. A detailed M&E manual/guideline and monitoring formats arebeing drafted which will be incorporated into the program’s implementation guidelines.


LESSONS LEARNED

Operational since 2003, the national Ru-WatSIP has built on the lessons learnt and the greater level ofconfidence, knowledge and capacity that now exist within both the program and MRRD. The AWP hasbeen signed between PIU/Ru-WatSIP in 2014 which reflects all activities that should be done by relevantunits.

Sanitation and Water for All (SWA): The SWA partnership meeting was held in April 2014 inWashington DC, United States of America (USA) and Ru-WatSIP attended the meeting as focal pointfor Afghanistan. In this meeting, the sector ministers’ meeting took place on April 10 in Pan AmericanHealth Organization (PAHO). In this meeting, group discussion took place to review the progress andchallenges against 2012-2014 commitments of each member country. Afghanistan took part in SouthAsia group and HE the Minister of MRRD presented a brief presentation highlighting the progress,challenges and ways forward in WASH sector which Afghanistan made since 2012.

The High Level Meeting (HLM) conducted on April 11th 2014, in the International Finance Corporation.In this meeting the officials of each country shared the importance of WASH and extended theircommitments for more advocacy and support in the sector. During HLM, the WB has renewed itscommitment to support the WASH sector in Afghanistan for the next five years with the plannedbudget of USD 100million and USAID has also agreed to contribute and support the sector throughWB.

Finalization of National Hygiene Communication Strategy: In 2nd quarter of 2014, the regularmeeting in relation of finalizing the National Communication Strategy by sector partners was positive insharing ideas, providing feedbacks and follow up mechanisms.

Revision of WASH Policy 2010: As a first and important step, MRRD developed in 2004 a NationalPolicy Framework for the rural water supply and sanitation sector. That policy document was revised in2007 and then in 2010 into the present Water Supply, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) policyframework. Since then we have witnessed changes at national, global and regional level. Based on thesechanges and field evidence the existing policy can hardly meet the current situation. In reference withthese changes the policy will be revised which is envisaged in the WASH policy as well. To do this end aconsultant/consultancy should be hired. For the process of revision of the paper preliminary steps havetake: Terms of Reference (ToR) for the consultant has been developed and a workshop on preparationfor the mission conducted and the formation of the taskforce committee from the key stakeholdersincluding ministries, UN agencies and sector INGOs is under process. The committee will help theconsultant in the process of revision.


FUTURE PLANS

Building from previous experiences, and taking into account feedback collected from community,donors, and main implementation partners; Ru-WatSIP has acknowledge the need to improve itsinstitutional structure to improve the capacity for service delivery to local communities. Salient changeshave been made internally through establishment of M&E and MIS/GIS to respond to growing need ofprogram activities. The national Ru-WatSIP is planned to review the WASH policy in 2014 in order toassess the progress made and to address new challenges. In this manner, suitable changes can be madeto the policy if required, and strategies and investments can be modified accordingly. For achieving thisgoal the national Ru-WatSIP aims to recruit an international consultant who would be responsible torevise the current WASH Policy 2010 and will closely work with all sector partners to have theirfeedback, ideas and recommendations.

In addition, the Ru-WatSIP planned to develop and opertionalize a sector-wide Monitoring, Evaluationand Reporting (MER) framework, formulate an integrated DRR Framework and formulate a frameworkfor Environmental and Social Safeguard (ESS) for the safe drinking water and sanitation sector inAfghanistan,

Ru-WatSIP is currently in a transition period, from project based towards sector-side approch inplanning and investment in the rural WASH sector in Afghanistan. Therefore, the Ru-WatSIP seniormanagement will undertake a capacity needs assessment for sector to prepare capacity developmentplan through implementation of the plan for WASH policy will be easily translated transited intopractice. Lessons learned from the 1st quarter, and through internal analysis of Ru-WatSIP operations, allthese would be incorporated into the design and revision of WASH policy in 2014.
