The purpose of this action is to support the development of a national policy for WRM, including improved data collection, management and monitoring, and the efficient implementation of a national strategy for the water sector. It will entail the development and upgrading of information systems for all aspects of the water sector, thus enhancing water resource management in Libya and its governance at national and municipal level.This action will also seek to strengthen municipalities¿ capacity to take on certain functions related to the distribution of safe drinking water, sanitation and rain water drainage and the devolution of certain functions within the mandate of the Ministry of Water Resources (MOWR) and its affiliated entities. Key institutions including municipalities need to develop capacity so as to become real leaders in the formulation of strategies, legislation and policies while supported by adequate technical assistance.
