SWIFT takes part in packed ‘Payment by Results’ event at WEDC conference

The SWIFT Consortium, along with the two other consortia working to deliver DFID’s WASH Results Programme, held a packed event at the WEDC conference on 28 July to discuss ‘Implementing WASH programmes in a Payment by Results context’.

The event at Loughborough University, which was standing room only by the time it began, enabled the consortia to discuss how the requirements of a PbR contract have been incorporated into their programmes, and the key learning themes emerging. It was also attended by representatives of DFID and the e-Pact consortium, which is monitoring, verifying and evaluating the WASH Results Programme.

The South Asia WASH Results Programme, led by Plan UK, gave a presentation on programme design and payment systems; SWIFT presented on monitoring, evaluation, accountability and learning; and SNV’s Sustainable Sanitation and Hygiene for All presented on sustainability.

A lively question-and-answer session followed, before participants broke into smaller groups to discuss issues raised by the presentations.

SWIFT distributed two learning briefs at the event; one on ‘Implementing WASH programmes in a Payment by Results context’, and the other ‘Introducing the SWIFT tool for environmental assessment and risk screening for rural water supply’. Both briefs and the full environmental assessment tool can be downloaded from our Resources page.

About SWIFT

By March 2016, the SWIFT Consortium had reached almost 850,000 people in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Kenya with safe water or sanitation, and hygiene promotion activities - in some cases all three. It will continue to work with communities, local authorities, health bodies, utilities and radio stations until March 2018 to build capacity and ensure interventions are sustainable. In March 2017, SWIFT started preparations for a second programme in DRC that will reach more than 700,000 people with WASH activities by December 2018. The SWIFT Consortium is funded with UK aid from the British people under a ‘Payment by Results’ contract.
