Water Supply and Sanitation in Liberia : Turning Finance into Services for 2015 and BeyondThe African Ministers' Council on
 Water (AMCOW) commissioned the production of a second round
 of Country Status Overviews (CSOs2) to better understands
 what underpins progress in water supply and sanitation and
 what its member governments can do to accelerate that
 progress across countries in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). AMCOW
 delegated this task to the World Bank's water and
 sanitation program and the African Development Bank who are
 implementing it in close partnership with United Nations
 Children's Fund (UNICEF) and World Health Organization
 (WHO) in over 30 countries across SSA. This CSO2 report has
 been produced in collaboration with the Government of
 Liberia and other stakeholders during 2009-10. The analysis
 aims to help countries assess their own service delivery
 pathways for turning finance into water supply and
 sanitation services in each of four subsectors: rural and
 urban water supply, and rural and urban sanitation, and
 hygiene. The CSO2 analysis has three main components: a
 review of past coverage; a costing model to assess the
 adequacy of future investments; and a scorecard which allows
 diagnosis of particular bottlenecks along the service
 delivery pathway. The CSO2's contribution is to answer
 not only whether past trends and future finance are
 sufficient to meet sector targets, but what specific issues
 need to be addressed to ensure finance is effectively turned
 into accelerated coverage in water supply and sanitation. In
 this spirit, specific priority actions have been identified
 through consultation. A synthesis report, available
 separately, presents best practice and shared learning to
 help realize these priority actions.
