This book examines the challenge of reform of the urban water
supply sector in developing countries, based on case studies of
state-owned water companies in Ghana, India, Sri Lanka and
Zimbabwe. The growing public private partnership for urban water
supply is analyzed, focussing on the concession contract model. The
implications for meeting the water needs of the urban poor, for the
regulatory role of the state and for state capacity building are
also discussed.
