Through UNDP’s Public-Private Partnership with the Ministry of Water Resources, the Ministry of Commerce, and Coca-Cola Greater China, the water project was developed and has been in implementation since 2007. Improved Water Resources Management and Drinking Water Safety in Rural China aims to support government efforts to improve water resources management and drinking water safety in rural parts of China by setting up pilots in non-point source pollution, improved latrine facilities for schools, organic farming, and waste-water treatment. It also works to create water user associations to better empower stakeholders to sustainably manage water resources in their communities with reduced external assistance. Doing so provides areas with greater independence in safe water governance.
Since 2010, the project has been expanded into an Umbrella Programme on the Water Governance as the UNDP-CICETE-Coca-Cola partnership has expanded beyond improving policy mechanisms for drinking water safety, and a series of sound water resource management approaches and drinking water safety technologies have been demonstrated. These have included tests on water rights management and water resources allocation, the rebuilding of drainage pipelines, and implementing ecologically sustainable agricultural technologies for water conservation.
This Umbrella Programme has made a number of noteworthy achievements so far. A series of valuable policy suggestions and solutions for central and local water resource management have been devised and issued. Outreach work has enhanced the public consciousness of water safety and environmental protection issues. A series of pilot projects supported by the Coca-Cola company and the local fund was initiated which have improved livelihoods in the pilot areas and yielded a good development model and set of best practices.
A sound interaction mechanism has been established within the Public-Private Partnership framework, featuring “cross-department, diversified and multi-level” cooperation and participation. This mechanism has created an environment in which governments, international organizations, companies, research institutes, water organizations, and communities can work together to realize shared goals and the programme targets.
Since 2018, the Umbrella Programme has started sharing the best practices developed under the UNDP-CICETE-Coca-Cola Partnership for Water Governance with ASEAN countries and the Central Asian Countries through conferences, training courses, and public awareness-raising activities on water resources management, water-saving irrigation, drinking water treatment, etc.
An UNV specialist is needed to provide support to programme management, knowledge management, communication, and partnership under the Umbrella Programme.
