Malawi Climate Resilient WASH Financing Strategy 2022-2032

Highlights

The Malawi Climate Resilient water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) sector Financing Strategy has been developed for the next nine years, aligned with Vision 2063 and the First 10 Year Implementation Plan (MIP-1). The strategy is also aligned with the Malawi Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), which feature adaptation measures specific to the WASH sector.

This strategy sets out a path to close the finance gap in the WASH sector in Malawi, and to
ensure the financial sustainability of the WASH sector – considering future climate scenarios
and the general socio-economic context of the country. It provides:

• A long-term view of the likely evolution of WASH sector finances;
• Practical and feasible ways to close the finance gap;
• Critical assessment of the extent to which the foundations to mobilise additional finance are in place and whether there are initiatives to improve on them.
