The Urban Team (also known as the UPC team) is responsible for the implementation of the UPC. The Urban Team is currently composed of: A Civil/Water Engineer (the Team Leader of the Urban Team) A Sociologist A Sanitation Officer An Accountant The Team Leader of the Urban Team reports directly to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the WSTF

  5. Reporting to the WSTF • The Technical Field Monitor will be working closely together with the Civil/Water Engineer • The Social Field Monitor will work together with the WSTF sociologist (Urban) • The Financial Field Monitor will cooperate with the Accountant (Urban)

  6. Reporting to the WSTF • All Field Monitors report to the Team Leader of the Urban Team • Reports (using the WSTF Android App) prepared by the Field Monitors will be checked by the Urban Team and approved by the UPC Team Leader before they are submitted to the Chief Executive Officer • When reporting to the Urban Team, the Field Monitors will use the reporting templates prepared by the WSTF • Specific sections have been prepared for each of the three (3) Field Monitors; Social, Engineering and Finance

  7. Reporting to the WSTF • Field Monitors are part of the WSTF Urban Team. The Field Monitors represent the WSTF in the field, at project level • Field Monitors have been recruited to ensure that all WSTF-funded projects are implemented successfully and meet the standards of the WSTF • Field Monitors, together with the WSP, the WSP and the other members of the Project Task Team are implementing the UPC

  8. Communication with the WSTF The Field Monitors are responsible for monitoring the WSTF-funded projects. This activity requires frequent and in-depth communication with the Urban Team of the WSTF: • It is important to remember that it is important to communicate frequently with each other (WSTF <->FMs) • Problems should, if possible, be reported before they occur instead of after the implementation of the project! • FMs can: call >>> e-mail >>> send an sms >>> communicate through reports, pictures, etc. • The WSTF will : call >>> e-mail >>> send sms >>> communicate through reports, pictures, etc. >>> carry out monitoring visits
