Support to Development of National Program for Citywide Inclusive Sanitation

Project Summary:

The main objective of this project is to support the Government of Indonesia in the preparation of a national program on urban sanitation and project preparation of the National Urban Wastewater Management Project (NUWWMP), which aims to increase access to safely managed sanitation through a Citywide Inclusive Sanitation (CWIS) approach. The program includes national level support to the enabling environment, and on establishing model sanitation cities for CWIS implementation through the NUWWMP project preparation and implementation. The grant activities will improve the capacity of national and local governments for wastewater management and increase access to safely managed sanitation to the population living in selected cities in Indonesia. 

This grant is linked to Pipeline Lending ($200,000,000).
