External evaluation of the programme

Cap-Net has been subject to an external evaluation and the report has recently been submitted to the management board. The findings are positive and show that the global partnership of capacity building networks provides a unique tool to take forward and promote improved water management practices on a large scale. Targets are being achieved and it was recommended that the Cap-Net project should be considered in a new 10 year time frame. These are all positive aspects but of course there are areas where we should be doing better.

Closing the gap between WRM and Water and Sanitation

With the aim to raise awareness and build action for collaboration between water resources management and delivery of waer and sanitation services, Cap-Net together with partner networks LA-WETnet, AguaJaring, WaterNet, NileIWRMnet, Streams of Knowledge, and partners IRC and the WRC initiated a capacity building programme focussing on clarifying areas of overlap, the benefits of collaboration between major players and how, where and when these interactions can take place. The action programme is to improve awareness and knowledge, develop training materials and initiate pilot training activities. Click here to read the briefing note.
