Albania National Water Supply and Sanitation Sector Modernization Program

About this project

The development objectives of the National Water Supply and Sanitation Sector Modernization Program (NWSSSMP) for Albania are to improve operational and financial performance of water supply and sanitation (WSS) utilities and increase access to safely managed water supply services in the Republic of Albania. The government program comprises a public investment program and a set of policy and regulatory instruments framed by a broader, decade-long water sector reform process, which the Ministry of Infrastructure and Energy (MoIE) and Agency of Water Supply, Sewerage, and Waste Infrastructure (AKUM) have been steering with strong leadership since 2016-17, gaining commitment from all sector stakeholders in the country. The NWSSMP will help put in place the relevant processes and mechanisms to further develop and roll out existing tools and the development of new policy guidelines, working simultaneously at the national and local (and/or regional) levels, while the investment project financing (IPF) component and other donors will provide technical assistance (TA) for specific outputs required, and institutional strengthening.
