Projects
IRC is involved in a number of projects with a variety of partners, with different funding mechanisms and with different life spans. All projects are contributing to the overall aim of facilitating the sharing, promotion and use of knowledge to improve the long-term effectiveness of development work in the water supply and sanitation sector. The projects listed in this folder are ones in which IRC is one of the leading partners. Many regional specific projects can be found under the regional programme.
UN-Habitat-SCP-BUS
The UN-Habitat Sustainable Cities Programme has a component on Basic Urban Services, i.e. sanitation and water services. IRC is taking the lead on this Basic Urban Services (BUS) for the period 2003-2008. The emphasis will be on demonstration and scaling-up processes in several cities in different countries, the anchoring of strategies, methods and approaches in local institutions for future capacity building, and the documenting, sharing and using of these different experiences and lessons learned.
Completed Projects
A number of projects in which IRC has been involved have been completed. The background material on these projects can still be found in this folder.
