Based on a political-economy analysis exploring the incentives, constraints and opportunities, with a focus on the poorest fifth of the population. We looked at three country case studies: urban sanitation in Cambodia; urban water supply in Ghana; and rural sanitation and water supply in Nepal.

In the synthesis report, we look at the implications of the findings across the three case studies for governments and their partners in working towards achieving water and sanitation for all by 2030 (Sustainable Development Goal 6), and reduced inequalities (Sustainable Development Goal 10)
