  6. ASHMA ROLE WILL BE CRUCIAL • Project facilities will be owned by Districts, ASHMA will also be responsible for managing of facilities • Effort will be on Supporting districts to plan and implement sanitation projects • Support in building capacity for ASHMA to manage its sanitation infrastructure sustainably • Encouraging Municipality, private sector and Communities to work together • A steering committee will be put in place to facilitate district ownership and TPP concept

KEY ROLE OF COMMUNITY/NGOs AND PRIVATE SECTOR • Community groups and opinion leaders will play a role in decisions related to project • Assemblymen, opinion leaders, leaders of market women etc will be key players • In particular community will play a key role in determining how facilities will be managed • And in ensuring that the facilities benefit all including the poorest and the vulnerable • A consultative forum (learning alliance ) will be formed to facilitate community involvement

  8. DESIGNED AS A PILOT PROJECT • As aspects of project implementation will be keenly observed • TREND will work with project partners to document and analyse Project experiences • Lessons learned will help prepare materials that will benefit other ASHMA • Learning aspect explains why the Project is called a pilot

  9. CONCLUSION • Project is a result of long and competitive process. • Ashaiman was chosen because of its perceived readiness and ambition to improve its prevailing sanitation conditions. • The Project is designed as a pilot. It will adopt a TPP approach which requires active involvement of all stakeholders (Govt/Private/ Community groups) • In particular the role of the ASHMA will be crucial in facilitating implementation and in ensuring sustainable management • TREND Group’s role is to support the ASHMA and all project partners to ensure the success of the Project
