Liberia’s Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) sector faces chronic structural problems, which have become more challenging since it was not the primary focus of the post-conflict emergency response by development partners.
... See More + The wartime destruction of infrastructure and the urgency behind rebuilding post conflict, led donors as well as Liberia’s own Ministry of Finance to directly fund reconstruction and development through non-state actors (such as NGOs, CSOs and development partners) rather than state institutions (World Bank, 2015). Consequently, this has weakened the institutional capacity of the sector to absorb finance and turn it into productive services, thus further inhibiting investment. This was further aggravated by the Liberian government’s immediate post war challenges, which were given greater priority such as roads and electricity. Other sectors, such as health, were funded through the country’s national budget, which became a point of leverage to influence institutional capacity. The WASH sector however, was left in the hands of non-state entities. WASH financing and activities are not fully coordinated within line ministries at the national and county level and sometimes between line ministries and county officials, as well as within development partners, and between development partners and government. This is mainly due to the disjointed nature of WASH-related activities, and lack of WASH champion at the national level that can play a strong coordination role.

Citizen centric services of solid waste management in Monrovia need improved communications with greater transparency and accountability, Even though waste management is a stated government priority, the subsector depends primarily on donor financing and on fees paid by citizens.
... See More + Citizens trust in service providers however is largely broken and need to be addressed to rebuild the social contract of paying for solid waste collection. The operational capacity of Monrovia City Corporation (MCC) to ensure accountability need to be strengthened, the MCC is currently a service provider but has extremely limited resources to effectively undertake this function. The service delivery model of engaging Community Based Enterprises (CBEs) for primary waste collection needs to be revisited – the formalization of CBEs has led to additional new challenges in the service delivery model, which requires rethinking the role of value-added services, adapting zoning laws to generate competition among CBEs and a more results-based model of financing.

The objective of the Methane Recovery from Waste Management Project for Philippines is to support environmental protection and promote sustainable development, while mitigating carbon credit risks, e.g., under-delivery of carbon credits, and other risks arising from different types of operational non-compliance.
... See More + Some of the negative impacts and mitigation measures include: install noise-control devices when applicable; regular equipment inspection and maintenance; equipment housed in enclosed structure, if applicable; ensure all loose equipment are securely placed; perform regular equipment inspection and maintenance; use proper labeling, containers, and storage; restrict access to chemical and hazardous waste storage; train staff (handling hazardous substances and wastes; review MSDS and product information sheets); only competent staff should administer veterinary medicines; practice hygienic practices (especially hand hygiene); perform workers’ regular health examination; and train staff (on animal handling, proper waste handling and disposal); keep sources of heat, including machineries, at a safe distance from biogas facility; and prohibit smoking and use of cellphones around biogas system and gas storage facilities.
