The action aim is to ensure the implementation of the Charter in the Communes by improving stakeholders' knowledge of the Charter, its provisions and the accession process ; building the capacity of stakeholders and users in the water sector as well as that of the Communal Councils on the Annotated Assessment Tool on Integrity in the Water Sector (EAIE) ; and obtaining the commitment of at least five communes to formalize their adherence to the charter. Since the development of the charter and its operationalization mechanism in 2016, efforts have been made to mobilize and sensitize stakeholders with a view to their appropriation and effective adherence.
The second phase focuses on the implementation of the Charter. Its implementation calls for the establishment of an institutional framework to ensure its operationalization. The establishment of this institutional framework requires a significant number of stakeholders to join the Charter; hence the need to implement a membership strategy that involves awareness-raising.
