What is it about?
After estimating humanitarian WASH sector response budget, the coordination platform must ensure funds are mobilized to cover it, by
- Coordinate funds allocation with donorsHumanitarian coordinator
- Supporting partner's proposal writing efforts and coordination
- Monitor that funds mobilization is sufficient and corresponds to strategic priorities (see funds tracking section in Monitoring chapter)
- Analyse funding data and address any funding gap through advocacy with donors
More and more emergency WASH funds are allocated through centralized mechanisms such as Central Emergency Response Funds (CERF) and Country Based Pool Funds (CBPF) and disbursed through OCHA, which facilitate sector funding coordination and tracking. But many WASH partners’ funding come from other sources: bilateral funding by donors, or aid organizations’ internal funding sources. Non-centralized funding represents a challenge for Humanitarian WASH National Coordination Platforms as they are not consulted or sometimes even informed of these funding, decreasing the accuracy of funding monitoring and gap analysis.
