Why ERP ? WSSD: Only with cross sector collaboration we

can ensure imaginative, coherent and integrated initiative to tackle most intractable problems

Isolation is inefficient, leads to competition, and duplication, wasting of valuable resources and to a “blame culture” .

The ERP Challenge: more, differently and better

More investments for rural people Address high unit costs Promote compensatory strategies

Le défi de l’EPR: plus, différemment et mieux

Plus d’investissements en faveur des populations rurales

Faire face aux coùts unitaires élevés Promouvoir des stratégies de compensation

The ERP Challenge: more, differently and better

Diversity of situation and needs Targeted, diversified strategies and

supply Intersectoral collaboration Partnership: State – Civil Society –

Private sector

Le défi de l’EPR: plus, différemment et mieux

Reconnaissance de la diversité des situations et des besoins

Diversification des stratégies et provision des services ciblés et diversifiés

Collaboration inter-sectorielle Partenariat : Etat – Société civile – Secteur privé

We are having success if

ERP is sustainable and self managing in each country The partnership has an added value in which individual

partners gain significant benefits by: Sharing good experiences Learning from each other Collaborating in a competitive world. Getting political impact and financial support that

individual partners would not receive in isolation
