This indicator measures institutional improvements based on an activity-specific institutional assessment index. The index must measure outcome-based changes and may be based on the following categories: human resource - monitoring systems - financial management (budget execution, ability to pass an annual audit) - project planning and management of implementation - enforcement of policies - equity (tariff setting, poor-inclusive policy, gender mainstreaming policy) - accountability to stakeholders.
The index can be based on standard models, the WASH building blocks, or a national governance index.
n/a - asessment against specific aspects to be taken at baseline and endline; improvement to be specifically defined i.e. improvement in all areas, 50% of areas etc, etc.
