I. What is GLAAS?

The Global Analysis and Assessment of Sanitation and Drinking-Water (GLAAS) is a UN-Water initiative that began in 2008 and is implemented by the World Health Organization (WHO). GLAAS responds to a continuing need to inform policy-making, and strengthen monitoring of national sanitation and drinking-water programs and activities. Specifically, GLAAS monitors the nature of government policies and institutions and their impact, investments in terms of financial and human resources, the volume and targeting of foreign assistance and the relative influence of all these factors on performance. A biennial GLAAS report assesses data from several different sources, including global data on sanitation and drinking-water coverage1, donor aid flows2, economic and development indicators3, health indicator data4, and data from regional sector and multi-sector assessments. GLAAS gathers data at both recipient country and external support agency level to fill key knowledge gaps (see www.who.int/water_sanitation_health/glaas/en). II. What WASH sector initiatives does GLAAS support?

In addition to providing sanitation and drinking-water policymakers and practitioners with a more comprehensive evidence base, the GLAAS process also informs political decision-making, particularly through its association with Sanitation and Water for All (SWA).External support agencies and countries participating in the GLAAS survey will be encouraged to participate in the High Level Political Dialogue (HLPD) which feeds into the High-Level Meeting (HLM) of Sanitation and Water for All in April 2017. The HLPD and HLM provide a platform for discussions and agreement on actions to increase access to sanitation and drinking-water.GLAAS is also integrally involved in collaborative monitoring efforts under Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6 and related targets and indicators. GLAAS is working closely with OECD and UN partners to provide data and harmonize methods for monitoring of means of implementation targets 6a – development assistance, and 6b – local participation.III. How is this survey conducted?

Each GLAAS cycle, bi-lateral and multi-lateral agencies, UN organizations, private foundations, and other NGOs that provide development aid, technical assistance, research, or other support to sanitation and drinking-water, a.k.a. external support agencies (ESAs) are invited to participate in the survey of external support agencies. These data augment information provided by countries, and present a full picture of actions and activities related to service provision of drinking-water, sanitation, and hygiene promotion.IV. How will data from this survey be presented?

A detailed summary of external support to the sanitation and drinking-water sector is presented in the biennial GLAAS report. These sections discuss status and trends in: the targeting of aid sectors, aid to water and sanitation, prioritization of recipient countries, regional targeting, aid allocation breakdowns, types of aid, funding channels, future targets, and alignment of aid with country planning processes. Based on the responses to the ESA surveys received, the GLAAS team will complete a profile for each ESA which will be provided to each respondent for their review and approval and for use in the discussions leading up to and during the 2017 High Level Meeting organized by SWA. A sample profile with referenced data sources is provided as an illustrative example. Once data from this survey is received, the GLAAS team will complete a draft ESA profile for your agency. If your agency reports its Official Development Assistance (ODA) to OECD, the most recent ODA data is presented in the attached sample profile. Please feel free to provide comments on reported OECD data. In addition, the SWA Country Process Task Team (CPTT) has identified four collaborative behaviours, that if jointly adopted by governments and development partners, would improve long-term sector performance and sustainability. In collaboration with the CPTT, the Global Monitoring Harmonization Task Team has developed indicators to monitor the four collaborative behaviors. Several of these indicators are based on 1 WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme on Water Supply and Sanitation2 Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Creditor Reporting System3 World Development Indicators, World Bank4 World Health Statistics, WHOGLAAS External Support Agency Survey 2016 - version 19 September 2016

responses to this survey, and may be reported in country profile summaries. A compendium of ESA survey responses will be prepared that is separate from the GLAAS report and ESA profiles. This compendium will present all the information provided as part of the ESA survey.

Responses to the survey may also support monitoring of Sustainable Development Goal 6, and related targets and indicators, specifically Means of Implementation target 6a (amount of ODA aligned with government budgets and plans).V. What are the different parts of the survey?

As in past years, GLAAS has developed a survey that aims to capture data on aid flows and information on ESA priorities, future planning and alignment, and how aid is being delivered. However, the scope of the survey has been changed to align better with SDG goals, SWA collaborative behaviours, and the different types of external support agencies including:

Bi-lateral donors (e.g. governments of United Kingdom, Japan, etc.) Multi-lateral development banks (e.g. World Bank, African Development Bank, etc.) UN agencies (e.g. UNDP, UNICEF, etc.) International NGOs and private foundations (e.g. WaterAid, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, etc.) Universities and research centres

Working closely with OECD and data collected through the Creditor Reporting System, the aim is to make the best use of existing data sets. For those donors that already report to the OECD-CRS, there is the option to skip two questions (Question 8.1 and 8.2) that duplicate information requests to the OECD. In addition to reported aid flows, information on ESA priorities, future planning and alignment, are requested in this survey. For ESAs that focus primarily on technical assistance, it is requested that disbursement volumes in Question 8 be represented as either monetized benefits of assistance provided, staff budgets, or staff FTEs. ESAs that focus primarily on technical assistance can also skip Questions 8.3 and 9.1 to 9.3 concerning disbursement of funds.Please note that the sample profile sheet included as an attachment is for illustrative purposes only. There is no need to complete this profile sheet at this time, as this will be done by the GLAAS team based on the ESA survey questionnaire response and then transmitted back to your agency for review and approval.VI. Who should complete the survey?

WASH sector team leaders/staff of your organization at headquarters level will be able to answer most of the questions in this survey, although, assistance of financial or human resource officers may be needed to complete certain sections of the survey regarding financial flows or level of effort in the water sector. For bi-lateral donors with multiple agencies contributing to WASH sector activities, either one combined survey response from all (or a majority of) contributing agencies or separate survey responses are acceptable, whichever is most appropriate. For instance, if one large institution provides a majority of aid from your country, then one combined survey response may be more applicable than several separate responses, whereas if two agencies each provide a significant percentage of aid using different modalities, then separate responses may be more appropriate.For one portion of the survey (Question 11 on collaborative behaviours), it may be necessary to query your organization’s country programs/offices for responses (if applicable). If your organization has more than ten country programmes/offices in which it works, it is requested that a sampling of up to ten country programmes/offices are queried to inform this section on how your organization works at country level.VII. What is the deadline for response?

Responses to this survey are requested by 11 November 2016. Additional response time is available for those organizations desiring to participate but not able to meet the November 2016 deadline for response. GLAAS External Support Agency Survey 2016 - version 19 September 2016

COLLABORATIVE BEHAVIOURS FOR MORE EFFECTIVE DEVELOPMENT COOPERATIONThe Sanitation and Water for All (SWA) Country Process Task Team (CPTT) has identified four Collaborative Behaviours that, if jointly adopted by governments and development partners, would improve long-term sector performance and sustainability. In collaboration with the CPTT, the Global Monitoring Harmonization Task Team has developed indicators to monitor the four collaborative behaviors suggested by SWA partners to improve long-term sector performance and sustainability in the water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) sector. The four key behaviors are:

1. Enhance government leadership of sector planning processes;2. Strengthen and use country systems;3. Use one information and mutual accountability platform built around a multi-stakeholder,

government-led cycle of planning, monitoring and learning; and4. Build sustainable water and sanitation sector financing strategies that incorporate data on all 3Ts

(taxes, tariffs and transfers), as well as estimates for non-tariff household expenditure.

Indicators that support the monitoring of collaborative behaviours are applicable to both country governments and development partners. For development partners, these indicators could monitor internal organizational policies and practices, and monitor behaviours from a country-level implementation perspective. Question 11.1 below asks several questions concerning internal policies and practices in support of the collaborative behaviour approach, while Question 11.2 acknowledges that implementation of WASH aid activities can vary by country, thus requests additional information at country-level if applicable.

11.1 To what extent does your organization support/implement the following policies and practices? (Please circle or highlight the most appropriate response given in the last four columns)
