The WASH Action Group (AG) Indicator Framework provides a structured and comprehensive approach for evaluating the impact of WASH investments.
The WASH Action Group (AG) Indicator Framework, developed in 2023 by e-MFP and Aqua for All provides a structured and comprehensive approach for evaluating the impact of WASH investments. This framework aims to standardize the way financial institutions, investors, and other stakeholders measure the outcomes of WASH-related activities, enhancing the transparency and effectiveness of impact investments in the sector.
Seeking to evaluate the applicability and adoption of the WASH AG Indicator Framework, MSC (MicroSave Consulting) conducted a study among key stakeholders, including asset managers, financial intermediaries (FIs), and small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Through primary consultations, the study documents current impact measurement practices within the WASH sector, assesses their alignment with the WASH AG Indicator Framework, and identifies key challenges these entities face in data recording and impact measurement. The study offers actionable recommendations to enhance framework adoption, aiming to bridge critical gaps in impact measurement and reporting, ultimately improving the transparency and effectiveness of WASH sector interventions.
