Abstract

A significant constraint to effective and sustainable water and sanitation provision is the “lack of capacity at the local level.” There is uncertainty as to how the efforts of capacity builders should be measured and improved. The Centre for Affordable Water and Sanitation Technology (CAWST) and the Institute of Non-profit Studies at Mount Royal University (MRU) collaborated to address this issue. An evaluative framework was developed to assist capacity builders in the water and sanitation sector to capture and interpret results of their education and training activities. The framework was applied to evaluate CAWST’s training activities in Peru and Nepal.
