【 摘 要 】

Tanzania initiated a forward-lookingNational Water Policy (NAWAPO-2002) to promote an integratedapproach to water resources management and improve watersupply and sanitation service (WSS) delivery in both urbanand rural areas. To do this, the Government initiated in2004 a doubling of budget allocations to the water sectorfrom $60 million to $120 million. It also has shifted therole of the Ministry of Water and Irrigation (MOWI), movingfrom central control of water projects to facilitating andfunding projects and strengthening sector institutions andcapacity at the national, basin, and local governmentlevels. Much of Tanzania's capital budget goes to fundwater supply infrastructure, largely driven by the focus onachieving the millennium development goals. Donors supplymost of the capital funding and are coordinating fundsthrough a Sector Wide Approach to Planning (SWAp) tomaximize effectiveness. This public expenditure reviewfocuses on the quantity and quality of Tanzania'spublic funding process to assess how well budget allocationsfor the water sector actually translate into better waterand sanitation service delivery.
