Future Plans and Goals

Although the PLC’s strategy is to focus on the capacity building of village level community institutions, individuals and non governmental voluntary organizations on issues related to rights to drinking water and sanitation, it realizes the need to further strengthen capacity building at not only the local but also the regional, national and international levels. Therefore it would from now try to focus besides the socio-political situation, on matters related to governance, finance, ecology, technical and policies. This in turn would reflect within our planning of goals and objectives for the next two years. The PLC would thus:

• Focus on capacity building of community institutions, individuals and non governmental voluntary organizations on issues related to rights to drinking water and sanitation at the local, regional, national and international level.

• Adopt a multilevel, integrated strategy which would focus on training on one hand and on the other, carry out intensive research and documentation to influence policies and widen the knowledge base of individuals, institutions, processes, programs in matters related to governance, finance, ecology, technical and of course socio-political.

• Network with advocacy and research groups for gathering inputs in matters related to governance, finance, ecology and the technical so as to build capacity at the local, regional, national and international level.
