Priority WASH operational areas for the Asian Development Bank (ADB) are infrastructure, regional integration, climate change, water security and the water-energy-food nexus.
ADB is investing in water, sanitation, and waste management systems both in rural and urban areas. ADB financing for these interventions—also important from an environmental perspective—increased by about 70% during 2008–2012 compared with 2003–2007 levels. The country partnership strategy defines the strategic approach of ADB in a developing member country aligned with both the country’s development strategy and the corporate strategic priorities of ADB.ADB reports its financing in water, sanitation, and waste management in the annual development effectiveness review report. It also reports commitments and disbursements to the water supply and sanitation sector under OECD’s Creditor Reporting System (CRS).
Specific TargetBy 2020 500 million people with access to safe drinking water supply and improved sanitation. ADB’s Water Operational Plan 2011–2020 includes specific targets for sanitation investments of at least an increase of 25% of total water lending on sanitation, wastewater management, and river clean-up projects.
AID POLICY FOR WASH/TARGETS
Most hygiene promotion programs are integrated with water and sanitation projects. ADB works with partners from civil society, private sector and development agencies on hygiene, to ensure sustainable and viable facilities and service delivery.
Wastewater management projects have components on reusing treated wastewater for non-potable uses, producing energy, and using the biosolids as soil conditioner/fertilizer (taking into account the WHO Guidelines on safe reuse).
ADB has water and sanitation projects that involve climate resilient infrastructure, and technologies with low energy use, low footprint, etc. ADB has supported the use of Water Safety Plans in project preparation and structuring.
ASPECTS OF WASH AID
The Kiribati project in the Pacific Ocean has significantly improved the reliability of water supply in the Suva-Naursori area, and significantly expanded sewerage system coverage, resulting in improvements to environmental quality and public health.

sector classification system under the project classification system differs from the sector codes under OECD’s Creditor Reporting System (CRS). ADB does have an on-going discussion and collaboration with OECD in enhancing ADB’s reporting of its aid flows data to OECD.

use of country procurement systems
Varies according to specific country.
ACCOUNTABILITY
ReportingADB produces knowledge products on topics related to WASH such as case studies, project briefs, technology data sheets, and videos. Aidflows coming from the Asian Development Fund and Ordinary Capital Resources commitments and disbursements data on Water Supply and Sanitation sector under ADB’s sector classification system are regularly monitored.
Mutual Assessment ExercisesNo data.
FOCUS ON EQUITY
For drinking water and sanitation, approximately one third of grant funds (but no loan funds) are targeted to vulnerable groups. For hygiene projects 24% of grant funds and 13% of loan funds are targeted at vulnerable groups.
OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY
The ADB provides project implementation support to the executing agency of the recipient country.
