Water Supply and Rural Sanitation in Peru SDC Program • Rural Sanitation • APRISABAC Programs nationwide PR O PILAS • SANBASUR • Influencing • Board of Water Donors with other agencies: IN COOPERATION WITH WSP-WB, IADB, • WSP-WB AECI, SDC, GIZ- • CEPIS-PAHO-WHO KFW, etc Strategic approach of the AGUASAN Program • To contribute to poverty mitigation • Integral approach of demand response • Participation of all players involved • To strengthen abilities at municipal, regional and national levels • To influence policies and interventions nationwide.
4 key periods have been developed: • 1995-2005: Design, validation and implementation at community (JASS) and municipality levels • 2005-2007: Strengthening and coordination between both local and regional governments • 2007-2009: Incidence and strengthening at the regional government level, creating synergies with the central government for replying purposes within regions • 2009-2012: Incidence of experience scaling up in other regions of the country nationwide
Key success factors of the Model 1. Government authorities: political will and leadership. 2. Continuous enhancement processes. 3. Social policies & decentralization process. 4. Favorable national and international context in terms of economic growth. 5. Operation of project directive committees composed of sector authorities from both national and regional levels.
Main Results at effect and impact levels 1. Reduction of Acute Diarrheic Diseases (ADD) among children under 5. 2. Increase of investments in water supply and sanitation in regions. 3. Creation of an organization and management dynamic . Synergies with other sectors of production and services (craftwork, agriculture, homestay and eco tourism).
Main Products to Date Technologies corresponding to the reality of the country’s rural Andes. Ad-hoc regulations that have allowed for the mobilization of financial resources and the facilitation of their institutionalization. Flexible methodologies that have considered the integral approach. Creation of instruments and tools: G uidelines for monitoring integral projects within the SNIP framework. Regional information systems in water supply and sanitation linked to the sector system nationwide. Pedagogical guidelines for health and environment education. Capacity strengthening program: Strengthening plans for DRVCS. Training programs and technical support to local governments -municipalities-. Diploma programs in water supply and sanitation in alliance with regional universities.
MainResults at institutional level • Appropriation and empowerment of the management model by various sanitation players from Cusco and Cajamarca regional governments. • Financial and human commitments with rural sanitation by sub-national governments. • Institutional strengthening of DRVCS , as well as regional entities involved in sanitation programs. • Regional plans & participating budget. • Institutionalization of Municipality Sanitation Technical Areas (OMSABAR). • Water supply and sanitation regional platforms.

KEY MESSAGES: • The great challenge: Articulation and Synchronization of infrastructure and social technical components. • Lessons learned in various interventions prove that a short-term approach based solely in infrastructure does have positive effects; however, it fails to promote true changes in impact and development promotion, which are key factors for sustainability .
SABA Project: Basic integral Water & sanitation model in the Peruvian Andes. 2011-2012 Objective: • To promote the sustainable management model of water supply and rural sanitation services (SABA) in eight regions of the country (Piura, Lambayeque, Cajamarca, Cusco, Apurimac, Ayacucho, Huancavelica and Puno) by spreading out all lessons learned in Cusco and Cajamarca .

Response key factors (Scaling Up) Government Leadership Marketing Coordination Strategy and Partnership Implementation Long-term Capacity Strategy Sustainable Good Water & Governance Sanitation services
SABA Project: 2011-2012 Components: 1. Institutional development at both local and regional levels by strengthening Regional Housing & Sanitation Directorates and Management offices of regional governments through work coordinated between various levels of national, regional and local governments. 2. Formation of human resources in water supply and sanitation programs by educational organizations , gathering experiences from diploma programs in Cusco and Cajamarca in alliance with universities. 3. Regional strategic communication highlighting the SABA model contribution to poverty mitigation , as a result of regional and local authorities’ decisions regarding rural sanitation sustainable management. 4. Creation of a private fund for water supply and sanitation investments, setting up strategic alliances with public and private institutions for designing and implementing basic sanitation integral projects and forming human resources.
Lessons Learned • Leadership and sustainable management of water supply and sanitation services require an agreed and complementary work of various government levels and the community organization. • The need to articulate three components: infrastructure , management, operation and maintenance training , and sanitation education . They all demand human resources specialized in water supply and sanitation willing and able to execute integral projects. Continued …
Lessons Learned… • Integral approach investments in the sector lead to conditions for a local sanitation market; they bond with specialized human resources formation groups and, therefore, contribute to the impact and sustainability of services. • Community empowerment through its participation in co-funding water supply and sanitation projects leads to more participation and care for services, thus creating a sense of appropriation. Continued …
Lessons Learned… • In district capitals with no more than 2,000 inhabitants , optimization and rational use of drinking water by the population is related to micro measurement, structure and transparency of the established share . • In scattered rural communities, communication, organization and agreement strategies allow municipal authorities and community members to make effective decisions with respect to the offer of water supply and sanitation services with non-conventional technologies.
