What is it about?
After estimating the humanitarian WASH sector response budget, the coordination platform must should ensure funds are mobilised to cover it . They shouldwith:
- Advocate Advocating for pre-positioning of funds to the WASH response response;
- Support Supporting partner's proposal writing efforts and coordination;
- Monitor Monitoring of funds to ensure is they are sufficient and corresponds to strategic priorities (see funds tracking section in Monitoring chapter); and
- Analyse Analysing funding data and address any funding gap through advocacy with donors 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 who facilitate sector funding coordination and tracking. However a proportion of WASH partners’ funding comes from other sources : such as 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 this as funding stream, decreasing the accuracy of funding monitoring and gap analysis.
