2 Water Integrity Forum, 5-7 June 2013, Delft, The Netherlands

ABOUT THE FORUM

To address the need for extending the base and increasing the pace of water integrity action, the Water Integrity Network (WIN), Water Governance Centre (WGC) and UNESCO-IHE Institute for Water Education joined forces to organise the first Water Integrity Forum in the Netherlands at UNESCO-IHE from 5 – 7 June 2013.

The 1st Water Integrity Forum will bring together co-convening and various stakeholders, including policy makers,regulators, investors, private sector, NGOs and other water professionals from different continents and with different backgrounds. The participants will share theories, approaches, cases, tools, lessons, views and ideas about improving water integrity. The forum will last 2,5 days with presentations, plenary sessions, working groups, round-tables, open-space and video interviews. The outcomes of the Forum will feed into other processes and events on the road to the World Water Forum in 2015, and form the basis of a key publication on Water Integrity.

Improving water integrity means working with preventive measures to promote transparency, accountability and participation in water. Lessons have already been learnt from this preventive work, and tools have already been tested and applied. Some examples include strengthening procurement systems, consumer redress and influence, public expenditure tracking, strengthening capacities and raising awareness among water managers, regulators, and decision-makers. It is critical to promote evidence based water integrity measures. The Forum aims to bring valuable knowledge and experience together, as well as make space for new innovative methods to fight corruption.

WHY INTEGRITYBy improving integrity, we’ll ensure that there is a sustainable and equitable use and distribution of water, and that this access to water supply and sanitation is safe. In most countries shortcomings are not due to shortage of water resources but due to governance failures, such as institutional fragmentation, lack of coordinated decision-making, corruption and low levels of transparency and accountability.

OBJECTIVES

• Take stock of progress in addressing corruption issues in the water sector;

• Share knowledge, approaches and experiences;

• Build alliances to address the integrity challenges in the water sector.

DAY 3 Friday 7 June


FORUM WORK STREAMSWork stream 1 Water, Food and Energy Wednesday 5 June - Rooms A1a and A2a

Work stream convener and moderator: Floriane Clement, Researcher Institutional and Policy Analysis, International Water Management Institute

In this work stream, the Forum addresses issues related to water integrity that transcends the water sector into the food and/or energy sectors, and that affect sustainable development of our water resources.

The water, food, and energy sectors are intrinsically linked and a common approach is required to address them jointly. This also means that issues of transparency and integrity should be crosscutting across water, food, and energy. This is becoming even more pronounced due to the growing competition for our natural resources, rapid urbanisation, land and water deterioration, and the effects of climate change on the interrelations of water, food and energy. Currently, more than two thirds of global freshwater withdrawal is used for food and bio-fuels. These circumstances of increasing, or expected, scarcities and competition for land and associated water resources are drivers of corruption and therefore threaten access to these resources by the poor.

Under this work stream, there will be the following two sessions:

Session 1a: Integrity in Water and Food SecurityConvener and moderator: Floriane Clement, Researcher institutional and policy analysis International Water Management Institute

Session 1b: Integrity and Sustainability in Hydropower and Multipurpose Dam ProjectsConvener: Donal O’Leary, Senior Advisor Transparency InternationalModerator: Christiaan Poortman, Senior Advisor Transparency International

FORUM WORK STREAMSWork stream 2 Water Resource Management in River Basins Wednesday 5 June - Room A2b

Work stream convener: Daniel Valensuela, Deputy Director Office International de l’EauModerator: Julia Bucknall, Manager World Bank Central Water Unit (Water Anchor)

Water management at river basin scale includes many different (interrelated) functions, such as water demand and supply, food production, groundwater, flood and drought management, water and environment flows, water for industries, water for energy, fisheries, environmental services, sustainable development and poverty alleviation. These functions can be addressed at different scales and levels to ensure participation of different types of stakeholders.

For good governance to be effective, water management also needs to address the question of land uses and physical planning. Upstream catchments and water uses have downstream implications, which are often transboundary. Downstream demands, often due to the presence of big cities and large populations, are at the same time impacting upstream areas. Many organisations are involved in river basin management at different levels and geographic scales. River basin organisations and Water Boards are gaining importance, but lack the recognition and control to impose integer and responsible behaviour on large water users and polluters. Companies believing in water stewardship and social responsibility propose global and local water tools, but do not sufficiently look at issues through the water integrity lens. Government institutions are lacking capacities and cannot always ensure regulatory oversight in an effective way. Hence, the phenomenon of corruption continues to hamper effectiveness of the river basin approach to land and water management in the absence of effective monitoring and accountability systems.

The session will end with a joint panel discussion (Room A1a) and will also include participants from Workstream 1.

FORUM WORK STREAMS

Work stream convener and moderator: Esther Lowe, consultant-Water Integrity Network

Access to safe water supply, proper sanitation, and good hygiene are the basics for a healthy life. Still, many (rural) poor communities lack access to basic safe and sustainable water and sanitation services and therefore the means to apply hygiene practices. Progress towards the Millennium Development Goal 7 on water and sanitation is especially lacking in sub-Saharan Africa. The Global Corruption Report (Transparency International, 2008) showed that the WASH sector needs to confront corruption issues in regulation, services delivery and infrastructure development. Action research projects such as WASH-Cost and Triple-S have shown that lack of transparency, accountability and of effective participation inhibit sustainability, and results in huge investment losses called slippages. Lessons learnt need to be brought to scale, but vested interests and wilful malpractice impede this in many circumstances. Public awareness, access to information and transparency on sector performance are vital for people and civil society to hold governments, and possibly private service providers accountable. WIN and partners have gained experience in diagnosing integrity risks as a basis for local and national action plans for good governance in the water and sanitation sector. Unfortunately such plans tend to be slow in implementation and a specific anti-corruption focus is often diluted or ineffective because addressing corruption is a sensitive issue at best, a cultural taboo in general, and a no-go zone at worst.

FORUM WORK STREAMSWork stream 4 Integrated Urban Water Management and Services Wednesday 5 June - Room A3a

Work stream convener: Francois Brikké, Senior Network Officer, Global Water PartnershipModerator: Abibou Ciss, Capacity Development Specialist, International Institute for Water and Environmental Engineering

Water security in urban areas is under threat due to many stresses – population growth, urbanisation, increasing water pollution, the over-abstraction of groundwater, water-related disasters, and climate change. Current planning and management have proven insufficient in addressing the challenges of water security and there is therefore a need for a paradigm shift based on key concepts of integrated urban water management (IUWM) that include the following principles:

• Consider the entire water cycle as one system (water sources, water supply, wastewater and storm water)

• Provide water fit for purposes (matching water of a certain quality to its intended use)

• Maximise the benefits from waste water (recycling and reuse of resources is fostered by more decentralized clustered systems)

• Involve all the players, including local governments, utilities, and communities (in the water allocation per sector, water demand campaigns, planning, decision and implementation process).

• Strengthen the institutional environment (promoting inter-sectoral approach, efficiency and transparency)

Work stream convener: Maria Jacobson, Programme Officer UNDP Water Governance Facility at Stockholm International Water InstituteModerator plenary opening and closing: Nick Hepworth, Director Water Witness International

Various organisations have developed different tools to assess and diagnose levels of corruption or integrity. These tools are mainly designed to assess integrity and corruption in the private and/or public sector. There are also tools conceived to support the public and civil society to be able to assess integrity and corruption themselves, to raise their voices, and to support citizen’s action and participation. This work stream aims to increase knowledge on the availability of tools to assess (water) integrity and the successful implementation of such tools. Participants will take stock of available tools to diagnose and assess water integrity; share approaches and best practices of applying these tools; identify ways forward to develop and implement tools; and build alliances for further knowledge sharing and promoting the development and implementation of tools to diagnose and assess water integrity.

FORUM WORK STREAMS

Work stream convener: Grit Martinez, Consultant Water Integrity NetworkModerators: Grit Martinez, Consultant-WIN and Aziza Akhmouch, Head Water Governance Program at Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development

The process to scale up integrity has the goal that integrity is institutionalised at all levels of society (local to international) and cuts across all sectors within. Curbing corruption requires efforts that cannot be undertaken by a single organisation and not even by a specific group of organisations. To put a stop to corruption in the water sector we have to scale-up action through partnerships and anchor integrity in all relevant policies and organisations that have a stake in the water sector. Only if integrity is considered a core responsibility for the entire water sector we will be able to prevent corruption across the sector effectively.

Hence the objective of workstream 7 is to further create commitment and establish and support alliances and programs on water integrity. To this end the session will takes place in an interactive format.

In this Work Stream partners and participants take stock of processes that are directed to expand and up-scale integrity efforts (at the local and global level), share approaches of experiences and best practices of up-scaling integrity in the water sector, and identify ways forward for up-scaling integrity and to include integrity in the coming development goals.
