Water and Sanitation Initiative Global Programming
Water and Sanitation Initiative (WSI) Global Programming is an initiative to fund global and regional water, sanitation and hygiene programs delivered through multilateral partners. The purpose of the funding was to widen the geographical focus and impact of water, sanitation and hygiene programs; complement activities funded bilaterally; and to work with multilateral partners to improve aid effectiveness, build partner capacity and enhance knowledge management. In 2011-12 the initial global program was expanded with a 5 year program to provide funding to multilateral partners including the World Bank Water and Sanitation Program (WSP); the World Health Organization Water Quality Partnership for Health (WHO WQP); the Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council (WSSCC); the UNICEF/WHO Joint Monitoring Program (JMP); and the Sanitation and Water for All Partnership (SWA). Funding provided to the partnerships under WSI has increased the impact, effectiveness and responsiveness of water, sanitation and hygiene activities in the Asia Pacific and Africa regions and has contributed globally to improved sector knowledge and monitoring. The program was further extended in 2016, out to 31 December 2019 and additional funding was provided to some partners. The total value of this investment is $111.5 million over 10 years, starting in 2009-10. The World Bank's Water and Sanitation Program ceased in 2016 and has been replaced with the new Global Water Security and Sanitation Partnership which is integrated into the Bank's Global Water Practice. Complementing funding from other donors, Australia will contribute $26 million over five years to 2022 to this new partnership.
