KICK-OFF WORKSHOPCONCEPT NOTE

1.BACKGROUND

A successful city is one where all ci�zens live produc�ve, healthy, and dignified lives in an environment free from fecal contamina�on. Citywide inclusive sanita�on means that: everybody benefits from adequate sanita�on service delivery outcomes; human waste is safely managed along the whole sanita�on service chain; effec�ve resource recovery and re-use are considered; a diversity of technical solu�ons is embraced for adap�ve, mixed and incremental approaches; and onsite and sewerage solu�ons are combined, in either centralized or decentralized systems, to be�er respond to the reali�es found in developing country ci�es.

The TA Hub is an ini�a�ve by the BMGF to put into prac�ce and mainstream the CWIS principles. It is a partnership of experts that will support mul�lateral banks and governments by providing grant-financed technical assistance for the adop�on of CWIS principles in large-scale flagship investments in key countries and ci�es in Africa. This will include TA at iden�fica�on, design, prepara�on, implementa�on and evalua�on of urban sanita�on investments.
