Governments typically provide the water
and sanitation sector with substantial amounts of public
money. Monopoly power, public funds, and discretionary
decisions, coupled with poor accountability, breed
corruption. The best hope for reducing corruption in the
water and sanitation sector is to incentivize water sector
officials and managers to be responsive to citizens' demands.
