WDM - A brief introduction
|
|
|
|
The Water Demand Management (WDM) Programme, hosted by the Development Bank of Southern
Africa (DBSA), and supported by the Swedish International Development Cooperation
Agency (Sida), is a Southern Africa Development Community (SADC) region Programme.
|
|
|
|
The WDM Programme aims
"to entrench a WDM culture in Southern Africa that contributes
to the SADC goals of regional integration and poverty alleviation through pro-poor,
efficient and sustainable utilisation of water in the SADC region."
|
|
|
|
|
|
The principle objectives of the Programme include: garnering greater acceptance
and consolidation of pro-poor WDM practices in Southern Africa; implementing WDM
activities and creating confidence among credit institutions to finance WDM projects.
|
|
|
|
All activities the Programme will undertake can be categorised into one, or a combination
of three different types of services: namely, Support services, Project Development
services and Finance Facilitation services.
