Hello,
we are currently doing research on integrity for citywide inclusive sanitation (CWIS).

One step is to assess the regulatory environment for urban sanitation, look at major integrity failures, and examine regulatory mechanisms that can help to address them.

We started with a comparison of urban sanitation regulation in Bangladesh, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Zambia. We looked at regulation for non-sewered sanitation and CWIS. We also looked at broader regulatory instruments for integrity that apply to water and sanitation actors.
We see that though some progress has been made on inclusion and accountability for and through CWIS, there is much to do to enable regulators to effectively address the integrity issues that undermine both their work as regulators and service delivery generally.

We're keen to hear more form experts here about their experiences on regulation for CWIS, their knowledge of strong regulatory mechanisms for integrity that could be inspiration for others, and their views on the conclusions of our research.
