Issues and Challenges

Republic of the Philippines
National Economic andDevelopment Authority

Resource:

Many areas across the country are already experiencing
ground water stress or depletion due to over extraction.

Regulation:

The absence of a uniform and stable regulatory
framework/regime does not provide an environment thatwould encourage and maximize investments in WSS.

Institutional:

Many Water Service Providers lack technical and managerial
capacities to operate sustainably

Financing:

Water utilities especially small ones are unable to accessfinancing and/or funding and many water districts are notcredit worthy.

What is Water.org and
its innovative programsin the Philippines?

We are Water.org
Founded by Gary White and Matt Damon, Water.org is an international
nonprofit organization that pioneers market-driven financial solutions to
the global water and sanitation crisis. To date we’ve transformed morethan 12 million lives in 13 countries — giving women hope, children
health, and communities a future.

Water.org Philippines•

Started in 2014; registered with the SEC as a Representative
Office. We have a small team consisting of smart dedicatedemployees. Our office is located two blocks away.

1 WaterCredit program:extending small loans topoor households in allparts of the Philippines
for water and toilet
purposesWater.org Philippines•

We work with the biggest and best microfinance organizations in
the country. We sign up partnership agreements with them.

34

Our partners in the Philippines:Our partners have many people on the
ground: more than 14,000 people

Microfinance institutions provide loans forlivelihood usually…

But we persuaded them to extend loans also torwater connection and toilet construction of theirclients.

Poor households get access to water utilities intheir locality through the loan they obtained
from the MFI. This is WaterCredit.

Water.org network in the Philippines• We work with 8 Filipino MFIs:

2 WaterConnect Program –working with water utilities
to connect more poor
households to the water grid.

WaterConnect – helping water
utilities to connect more peopleWe do community organizing, marketing, and helping
get financing to households so they can pay the water
connection fees and for pipes.

How can we collaborate
together?

We need to work together toreach millions of poor Filipinos
without access to water andtoilets.

How can we collaborate together?

• We need more partner MFIs
• We want to partner with more water
utilities – water districts, LGU-managed waterworks,
private water operators and water service cooperatives• We want to work with NGOs,
government and banks for capacity
building and financing to MFIs, water utilities
and cooperatives
49

Our Proposal to Government:• Support and build network of WaterCredit MFIs
to cover the whole country = 2500 branches,
25,000 employees extending loans to poor
households, reach 8 million people• Provide affordable wholesale financing to MFIs
• Government to provide subsidies to very poor
or indigent families and MFIs can help in theselection of beneficiaries and disbursal of
funds
50

Through the close
cooperation andcollaboration of various
players – government,
MFIs, NGOs, banks,
water utilities, coops, we
could achieve universal
access to water andsanitation by all
FilipinosKaya natin ito!

Conclusions▪ Banks remain liquid and ready to support viable infrastructuredevelopment such as water supply and sanitation projects▪ Long term financing is available to address access, affordability
and efficiency of water supply and sanitation services▪ Financing challenge remains due to poor governance, regulatory
issues, lack of managerial/technical capacities, fragmented
sectoral framework/policies, etc.
▪ NEDA’s proposed Viability Gap Financing is a good modality toaddress the unbanked market in water supply and sanitation

Marco Polo Hotel, Ortigas, Pasig CityMay 10, 2018

• It is normal for a growing childto be infected by worms!
• Human excreta is a nutritious
feed for pigs!
• Strong cultural beliefs onhealth and illness causation!
• A lot of people does’nt know
the importance of having a
toilet!

What is the role of
WASH to preventand control WASH
related diseases?

• open defecation and improper hygiene behaviour• lack of appropriate sanitation facilities that lead to contamination of water
sources• OD persisted to the detriment of all in the community, creating a
vicious cycle of illness, high expenditure on health care, lost work
hours and poverty

National Sustainable Sanitation Plan (NSSP)•

Hygiene and sanitation is paramount in
DOH mission to interrupt the spread of
diseases and to stop the deaths caused
by ill environments•

The DOH recognizes the need for anew
vision in sanitation, expressed in clearer
policy and action programs•

The programs under the NSSP include
activities designed to
improve theelements of the enabling environment
namely policy, strategy and direction,
coordination, institutional andcapacity
development,
advocacy
andcommunications, financing, programming,monitoring and evaluation.

Shifting SANITATION program from TRADITIONAL to
REVOLUTIONARY approach
SANITATION program in the past .....
• subsidies have been given to households tobuild standard latrines• the approach has been top down driven byneed to disburse funds• logistics for sanitation projects have been use
for other purposes (e.g. plastic toilet bowls
were used as flower pots, chicken nest, sinkor lavatory)• people provided with toilets have continued to
defecate in the openZero Open Defecation Program (ZODP) – Revolutionary
Approach•

To change the traditional approach,
ZODP utilize community led approaches
which maximize community participation
with the aim of empowering communities
to make decisions and to take actions in
improving their sanitation conditions•

DOH provide capacity building to help the
LGUs to build the competencies of CLTS
Facilitators in planning and implementing
interventions to address open defecationin communities through CLTS.

CLTS as an approach.....
• sanitation program can takes place without
hardware being provided or even financed
from the outside• the KEY is facilitation, ask simple anddirect questions (?)• “What word do you use for SHIT ?”(in CLTS, the crude word is always used)• “Where do you SHIT?”• “What happens to it?

CLTS Triggering Process
o all the components of the CLTS process
shall be employed- Climate setting- Defecation area mapping- Calculation of feces and medical
expenses- Transect walk or the Walk of Shame- Oral-Fecal Route Transmission- Food and feces demonstration- Glass of water demonstrationo Aside from shame, shock and disgust,facilitators should also emphasize pride andprestige during the triggering.

Goodbye Dumi, Hello Healthy!
WASH Communication for Development (C4D) Strategy

Learnings, Insights for potential and existing collaboration
with Public and Private Organizations in delivering WASH
supplies and services• The private sector is increasingly acknowledged as an importantdevelopment partner in the WASH sector in meeting the needs of thetarget population especially in reaching the poorest citizens.
• Involvement and participation of private sector in delivering WASH
supplies and services is seen as an alternative in bridging the gap, interms of efficiency in program implementation, increase in logisticalandfinancial resources, intensifying advocacy activities andtechnical expertise.
• Partnership plays an important role in accelerating sanitation
targets and objectives. Collaboration with private organizations will
intensify government ’ s efforts to cover the entire Philippine
population with basic improved sanitation access.
Sanitation
investments should not be seen just as an expense but instead
leading to economic benefit.

• Convince Local Chief Executives how
important it is to invest in sanitation.
• SHOW THEM THE DATA! Laymanize it.
Make Local Chief Executives and otherkey decision-makers realize howunsanitary their area could be.
• Make them realize that it is not enough to distribute toilet
bowls — invite them to a CLTS session – so they realise theimpacts of poor sanitation and the need to invest in behavior
change!

Institutionalizing change• Strengthening WASH governance is key!
• Create an inter-agency coordinating bodywithin the Province/Municipality to focus
on addressing WASH issues and to
maximize use of available resources andcapacities across sector agencies.

• Use the coordination body to PLAN, FUND,
IMPLEMENT and MONITOR!
• Establish local policies and ordinances tosupport sustained sanitation behavior
change and sanitation programming.
• Reach out and establish partnerships –with CSOs, MFIs, private sector and others.

Taking change to scale• Celebrate and reward success!
• Get Local Chief Executives / Barangay Captains on board assanitation champions – so they can advocate to their peers.
• Create opportunities for sharing experiences – so that goodpractices and innovations can be scaled up acrossMunicipalities, Provinces and Regions.

What is integrated in the Family
Development Sessions?

• The concept and urgency to stop OpenDefecation in Family Development Session(FDS);• Community-Led Total Sanitation approach, inparticular triggering (using shock, shame anddisgust) in FDS to: (1) build awareness for thenegative implications of the practice of open
defecation, as well as its repercussions on
health, especially on children, and (2) create
demand for improved sanitation facilities;• Behavioral Change Communication
instrument, in particular flipchart discussion
or engagement session in FDS to: (1) stressthe unlimited benefits of having a toilet, and(2) to get commitment of Pantawid grantees
to build own toilet; and• Supply side or discussion in FDS on the low
cost designs of hygienic toilet.

Sector Challenges

Institutions &GovernanceRegulatory
Financing & Funding
Management
Political

Water Resources• Water Availability – water is unavailable or inadequate in immediate vicinity;
water rights have been allocated to irrigation but not utilized• Water Quality – available water is polluted or contaminated• Water Sustainability – available sources are drying up due to over extraction
or sensitive to weather patterns or climate change• Topography & Geography – available sources require tunnels to access,elevated communities are not served, water has to be transported to island
communities• Others:• Human habitation in watershed areas or new water sources• Water permitting process takes too long
• Speculators hoard water permits

Institutions & Governance• Presence of multiple water institutions. No single body focusing on watersupply and sanitation.
• No regional presence of NWRB.
• Fragmented regulatory framework.
• Water supply and sanitation is not a priority of Local Chief Executives• No nationwide program to implement and monitor wastewater/fecal
sludge collection and treatment tied to water pollution status• Poor compliance with Clean Water Act• No directives on strategy to translate PDP or SDGs to local programs andprojects• Lack of comprehensive, participatory planning at local level• No river basin organization – no holistic planning approach• Institutional roles for sanitation issues are not clearly definedRegulatory Challenges• Lack of information and monitoring system on access andcoverage• Lack of baseline data on water supply and sanitation• Monitoring of water quality is rarely undertaken• Lack of water laboratories in far flung areas• Minimal monitoring of sanitary facilities• Lack of political will
• Poor enforcement of policies and laws – resource, economic,
environment• Water rates are too low in areas• No regulatory oversight on JV arrangements

Financing & Funding• Inadequate national funds for the maintenance, rehabilitation andexpansion of water systems• LGUs find it difficult to comply with stringent requirements toaccess funds or financing• Financing institutions don’t lend to small water utilities• Few takers for NSSMP

Management• Lack of technical knowledge on water and sanitation; lack of
septage facilities• Lack of awareness on climate change and resiliency• Poor attitude of many government employees on improvement ofservice• Poor water service to consumers• Water rates are too low; no cost recovery• Water utilities are not operated as business enterprises• Unfamiliarity with new technologies and updated techniques• Lack of proper community engagement

Political• Water is used a political commodity• Conflicts between LGU and water district• Consumers caught in the middle of opposing governor-mayors• Unqualified water district board members appointed by themayor/governor• LGU-run utilities are subsidized but cannot increase rates
