Beyond Utility Reach? How to Close the Urban - Rural Access Gap

Description:

Given that the significant access gaps are a major barrier to fulfilling the SDGs, this World Bank study was launched toincrease awareness and knowledge on how rural service provision is organized, to understand whether and how the aggregation through regional water utilities has effectively reached rural areas, and to present lessons and recommendations for expanding and improving the provision of services for rural populations.

Seven countries of the Danube region —Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Kosovo, Moldova, Romania, and Ukraine—were selected because they represent a wide range of rural water outcomes, different challenges, and sector reform contexts.
