Reinventing the Rural Sanitation Sector
The Challenge
Rural sanitation programs that are:• Effective
• Large scale
• Sustainable
• Reaches the poor and other marginalized groups

Beyond Scaling Up:How Do We Accelerate the Rate of Increase in Access?
Stronger government rural sanitation sector enabling environment
Strengthen the Enabling Environment:Eight Key Components
Financing and IncentivesThis dimension assesses the adequacy of arrangements for financing the programmatic costs. These costs include training, staff salaries, transportation, office equipment and supplies, and the development of communication and education materials as well as line items in budgets for program and promotion activities.
Example of Indicators for Components
Assessment of Enabling Environment for Scaling Up Rural Sanitation in India, Indonesia and Tanzania
Background Baseline assessment in 2007 TA action plan to address
weaknesses based on assessment Large Scale pilot as learning
laboratory Endline assessment in 2010 Monitoring and strengthening
enabling environment continuing >2010
Baseline and Endline Assessment for Rural Sanitation Sector in India, Indonesia and Tanzania
Progress Was Made
Institutional Arrangements - Tanzania
National lead institution identified for Rural sanitation
Roles and Responsibilities for sanitation are clear
Coordination mechanisms are established Dedicated budget lines Clear operational structure and capacity
Availability of Sanitation Products and Services - Indonesia
Products and services respond to consumer preferences
Improved supply chain Products available and affordable
for all economic categories of consumers Products available with appropriate marketing and quality assurance controls
Innovative products and services developed
Cost-Effective Implementation - Himachal Pradesh, India
Awareness of cost-effectiveness implementation taking place Cost-Effective assessment system in place Cost-effective assessment capacity in place
[some] Cost data collected, analyzed, and utilized
[some] Cost-effectiveness data used for future rural sanitation planning
Program Methodology - Madhya Pradesh, India
Demand led programmatic approach establish (by National Government) Program methodology adopted by State government
[some] Programmatic approach adopted by local governments Demand led programmatic methodology implemented

Strengthening the Enabling EnvironmentSo What?
Current and hypothetical rates of sanitation access increase in Rural Indonesia
Acceleration of Access in East Java
According to government data, rate of increase in access in East Java:
Proportion of HHs have access to improved sanitation
1993 2008 2009 2010 Average yearly increase1993-2008
Average yearly increase2009 - 2010
Rural 11.1% 32.3% 33.9% 38.8% 1.42% 4.85%
East Java 19,918,491
Central Java 18,155,819
West Java 14,840,945
West Nusa Tenggara 2,683,713
Bali 1,554,590
Selected Learnings Countries/States with the strongest enabling environment at
endline made the most progress in terms of accelerating access to improved sanitation and stopping open defecation.
The existence of a government led pilot program working at large scale was effective in providing evidence to strengthen political will and for identifying bottlenecks that needed be addressed at the national policy and sector level.
Strengthening the EE takes time and progress is often not linear. Progress continued to be made in each country after the 2010 baseline — but is still a work in progress in 2012 .
Key Take-Away Messages
An effective sanitation sector requires profound and systemic reform of the enabling environment.
While more learning is needed, there is now proof of concept for the framework for an effective rural sanitation enabling environment
A strong enabling environment is key for a sustainable sanitation program that will enable governments to accelerate access to improved sanitation.
