Summary
Partnerships and cooperation take place in almost any water-related endeavour and water resources management has a long history of experience with partnerships, both good and bad. This report reviews this experience, highlighting how enhancing positive and meaningful cooperation amongst the water, sanitation and broader ‘development’ communities is required to accelerate progress. This report also addresses how the water and sanitation community can internally collaborate more effectively, by
maximizing complementarity, as well as reach out to other sectors and realms of decision-making where water plays a critical role.
