Le changement climatique et la croissance démographique s’associent étroitement pour lancer aujourd’hui à nos villes un seul et même défi sans précédent. On peut comprendre que dans ces conditions, il faille un peu plus de temps aux principaux responsables des grandes régions du monde pour répartir les responsabilités et les obligations liées au changement climatique à l’échelle de la planète.

En attendant, les collectivités locales et le système international continuent à promouvoir la cause de l’urbanisation « durable », et ONU-HABITAT se tient à l’avant-garde de ces démarches.

In response to an increasing emphasis of UN-HABITAT on documenting results rather than activities, an impact study on the activities supported by the Trust Fund was commissioned in the reporting year. Undertaking a comprehensive analysis of the Water and Sanitation Trust Fund’s impact in two sample countries (Nepal and Kenya) and of Water and Sanitation Trust Fund activities globally on the theme of “Gender Mainstreaming”, the study marks the first phase of a plan to regularly assess the impact of the Water and Sanitation Trust Fund’s.

In this report, readers are invited to accompany the Water and Sanitation Trust Fund in its 2009 journey.
