About the project / À propos du projet
Addressing the strong linkages between water governance and sustainable financing, the Governance & Financing for the Mediterranean Water Sector Project aimed to diagnose key bottlenecks and identify realistic solutions to overcome them.
Jointly designed and implemented by GWP-Med and the OECD, the Project was formally labelled by the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM), while strategic partnerships with the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida), the FEMIP Trust Fund (FTF) of the European Investment Bank (EIB), the GEF-UNEP/MAP MedPartnership Programme and the Mediterranean Component of the EU Water Initiative (MED EUWI) have ensured its successful implementation.
This 4-year (2013-2017) Regional Project developed through an interplay of regional and national activities, the latter implemented in four focus countries (Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine and Tunisia).

Abordant les liens étroits entre la gouvernance de l'eau et le financement durable, le projet Gouvernance et financement pour le secteur de l'eau en Méditerranée visait à diagnostiquer les principaux goulots d'étranglement et à identifier des solutions réalistes pour les surmonter.
Conçu et mis en œuvre conjointement par GWP-Med et l'OCDE, le projet a été formellement labellisé par l'Union pour la Méditerranée (UpM), tandis que les partenariats stratégiques avec l'Agence suédoise de coopération internationale au développement (ASDI), le FEMIP Trust Fund (FTF) La Banque européenne d'investissement (BEI), le programme FEM-PNUE / PAM MedPartnership et la composante méditerranéenne de l'Initiative européenne pour l'eau (MED EUWI) ont assuré sa mise en œuvre réussie.
Ce projet régional de 4 ans (2013-2017) s'est développé grâce à un jeu d'activités régionales et nationales, ces dernières étant mises en œuvre dans quatre pays cibles (Jordanie, Liban, Palestine et Tunisie).
