Processes for strengthening the sustainability and scalability of WASH services Development of the Technology Applicability Framework and Guidance for Technology Introduction – Research Report

Description:

This report outlines the research process that was followed to develop two tools that are useful for the WASH sector: The Technology Applicability Framework (TAF) and the Technology Introduction Process (TIP). The TAF is applied to validate different technology options considered for a given context, and to thus assess possible blockages to their sustainability and scalability. The TAF, therefore, assists the local sector stakeholders to find solutions to overcome the stumbling blocks hindering provision of lasting services. The TIP is a guidance document to be used to steer the multi-stakeholder coordinated initiation of a specific WASH technology towards a local WASH service that lasts.
