In the context of MEG2, democratic local governance policy dialogue and policy changes, together with regulatory improvements in the area of water supply and wastewater management services, will provide for more effective, equitable and sustainable delivery of essential local services, alongside changes in collective and individual practices.

• Outcome 1: State, entity and cantonal governments set in place a more conducive policy and regulatory environment that affirms result-oriented local governance and improved water supply and wastewater management services.
• Outcome 2:Local governments improve their performance, are more accountable, inclusive and gender-responsive, and provide high quality services, in particular in the water sector.
• Outcome 3: Citizens, including the most vulnerable, benefit from improved water supply and wastewater management services provided in a more efficient, accountable, and sustainable manner.
