Level of detail

Guidelines will identify ‘who should do what’ regardless

of whether they are doing it presently

Guidelines will be applied by host when there is a

technology MWE/MOH/producer seek to introduce

Guidelines will spell out roles and allocate costs to

specific parties

1. Introduction of new technology/ introduction of modified

technology (formal communication to MWE/MOH)

2. MWE introduces product owner to ATC

3. Product owner explains key features, purpose & benefits of

product to ATC

4. ATC explains GTI process to product owner and documents

information

5. Product tests carried out. UNBS certification acquired (where

necessary)

6. Formation of GTI core group for product

7. Identification of pilot area in consultation with core group,

MWE,ATC

8. Piloting technology, documentation of process by ATC, etc.

TAF Application

Core group meeting on way forward w.r.t pilot

and TAF findings

Stakeholder workshop to disseminate findings

Decision on next phase of introduction process

Unresolved. Producer pays for tests

Producer pays for pilot hardware (partially)

MWE/ donor pays for pilot study and

documentation

Producer handles marketing costs

Monitoring tool to gauge technology

performance and gaps

Team composition will be smaller to

make it more affordable

Targeting 5 fora

1 Inter District meeting

WfP learning platform on Sanmat

WASHtech Core group meeting

Functionality working group meeting

UWASNET Technologies working group

meeting

Embedding & advocacy should go on into the

next year.

TAF is well received in the 3 countries

Global WASH professionals confirm value

of processes & tools for evaluating &

monitoring

Agreed TAF hosts; Burkina Faso- (DEIE),

Ghana (CWSA) &, Uganda- (ATC)

Training Institutes to consider processes &

TAF in their syllabi

TAF recommended for adaptation in other

countries for sustainable WASH services

Should start with a preamble on introduction of technologies in the

past, shortcomings and therefore need for a formal TIP

A process of phasing out failed & obsolete technologies should be

part of the GTI process.

Should include a road map towards its development

Budget provisions and timing of the GTI inadequate. Internal

resource mobilization of key organizations involved required to

ensure success

Challenge to map out, capture, interest and bring aboard

stakeholders (steering committee)

Dissemination work including policy formulation & advocacy will

require more than the 6 months left
