Lesson
A strong design and monitoring framework, with better defined outcomes and outputs and measurable indicators, and the setting up of a project performance and monitoring system during project preparation or at project startup could help track implementation challenges. These may have helped mitigate the risk of scope changes, loan cancellations, and early implementation delays due mainly to delays in startup activities, such as signing of subsidiary loan agreements, detailed engineering design, bidding document preparation, and delays in land acquisition and resettlement.

Lesson
It is particularly important for complex sector development programs to (i) better plan the completion timeline, (ii) avoid linking performance indicators to multiple targets, and (iii) include in the project scope components that will address major beneficiary needs (house service connections in this program) that would enhance program relevance. The weak institutional capacity of implementing agencies and water source sustainability affected the project’s effectiveness and sustainability. The gender equality and social inclusion design could also have been better aligned.
