It was observed that most approaches to monitoring focus on coverage measured in terms of numbers of systems built and people served. They seldom take into account the functionality of systems and their sustainability. The commitment coming out of the session was that by 2020, more than half of the countries in each continent have organized, inclusive and reliable reporting mechanisms for water supply services in rural and urban areas.
Mr Clement Bugase, Chief Executive of Community Water and Sanitation Agency (CWSA) Ghana, shared views on the steps that Ghana is taking to establish an organized, inclusive and reliable reporting mechanism for rural water supply services .
