    Impacts of the tsunami on poverty in Sri Lanka : brainstorming process
    (Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA), Colombo, LK, 2007) Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA)
    The Tsunami that hit Sri Lanka in December 2004 has brought a great loss of life, livelihood and infrastructure. While the unprecedented amount of financial and humanitarian assistance has been committed by the international aid agencies in response to the national disaster, little attention has been paid on how the concentration of assistance has impacted on the wider Sri Lankan economy and social structures, particularly in terms of poverty and equity. The study aims to discuss the impact of the tsunami on Sri Lanka as a whole focusing on both positive and negative effects.

    Colombo Focus City Project : data brief; 2009 quarter 1
    (Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA), Colombo, LK, 2009) Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA)
    This Data Brief focuses on perceptions of wellbeing of Under-served Settlement (USS) households as well as income and expenditure patterns, and satisfaction regarding access to existing service provision. It provides an introduction to the Baseline Survey sampling, providing information on environmental burdens that are linked to limited service provision, including sewerage and solid waste management facilities and their impact on poverty. The Colombo (Sri Lanka) study uses water and sanitation as an entry-point to develop a model of participatory service provision that addresses how best to deliver different types of urban services to the urban poor.

    Urban Poverty and Environment Programme : Colombo; monitoring and evaluation component; monitoring findings as of December 2008 – April 2009; outcome mapping no. 2
    (Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA), Colombo, LK, 2009) Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA)
    This paper presents data collection for a component of the project related to the Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) plan and its indicators. It focuses on strengthening community participation via the Community Development Committee (CDC). As the implementation activities of the Focus Cities (FC) project have maximised, the work load and pressures of responsibility on the CDC members has increased. In Colombo (Sri Lanka), the FC study used water and sanitation as an entry-point to develop a model of participatory service provision that addresses how best to deliver different types of urban services to the poor.

    Statistical handbook on baseline survey : part 1; data tables; (Focus City Programme : Community based Assessment and Improvement of Living Environment in USSs and Environs; the case of Gothamipura, Colombo)
    (Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA), Colombo, LK, 2009) Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA); Colombo Municipal Council; Sevanatha
    This paper is an interim document to provide partners with the basic aggregations of household survey data. The survey provides information on environmental burdens that are linked to limited service provision, including sewerage and solid waste management facilities and their links to, and impact on poverty. The project is part of a wider project encompassing six cities around the world. In Colombo (Sri Lanka) the study used water and sanitation as an entry-point to develop a model of participatory service provision that addresses how best to deliver different types of services to the urban poor.

    Focus City Action Research Project : Colombo; consolidation of process monitoring information
    (Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA), Colombo, LK, 2009) Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA)
    This document is a consolidation of the data collection for monitoring during the reporting period which has been presented against the M&E plan and its indicators. Please note that only indicators where data was available have been presented here. The document also noted a reflection by the monitoring team and some issues to revisit during the next round of monitoring. A series of Key Person Interviews were conducted with Sevanatha, CMC-Engineering Department, Solid Waste Department and the Public Health Department. In addition the team also drew from meeting and workshop documentation, process reflection notes, and the baseline data handbook. The Outcome Mapping reflection also drew from this data.

    Urban Poverty and Environment Programme : Colombo; monitoring and evaluation plan
    (Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA), Colombo, LK, 2008) Centre for Poverty Analysis (CEPA)
    This document presents the revised monitoring and evaluation plan focusing on the activity areas of the project in Colombo. The initial plan was prepared June 2007 and has now been finalised following a series of team consultations and comments. It provides a description of the project activities within each intervention area and links these to identified specific and general outcome areas. These outcome areas have been derived from the outcome challenges identified earlier in the project. These activities and outcomes are linked to indicators that would help capture the progress of these activities and understand the process of reaching the desired outcomes. The monitoring and evaluation plan is seen in the context of visualising the process documentation of the project and hence is developed with this additional activity in mind. This component will be tracked through outcome journals and this document also provides a plan to facilitate this process. The monitoring and evaluation component of this project has been developed to guide the implementation of project activities; understand changes that take place as a result of improvements to living conditions in the settlement through improved service provision; and capture the learning of the project. This necessitated the undertaking of a baseline study that would provide information on the pre-intervention context that could guide the planning and design of the project and construct a comparative analysis of change.

    Final technical report : research and multistakeholder dialogues in Indonesia's water and sanitation
    (The Water Dialogues - Indonesia, Jakarta, ID, 2009) The Water Dialogues – Indonesia; National Working Group
    This report provides information on achievements and lessons learned from a 12‐month scoping process of safe water and sanitation management in Indonesia. Recognizing that the private sector works across national boundaries, five countries (Brazil, the Philippines, South Africa, Uganda, and Indonesia) joined the international group of “The Water Dialogues.” The aim of the dialogues is to contribute to meeting millennium development goals (MDGs) for water and sanitation, through a series of national multi‐stakeholder dialogues and research processes.
