In preparation of the 2010 Global High Level Meeting, the Government of Ghana developed The Ghana Compact. This Compact - prepared by national stakeholders - summarises a number of the key issues, required actions to be taken by, and commitments of the Government of Ghana and its Development Partners in furtherance of the objectives of Sanitation and Water for All. Learning from Ghana's experiences, Liberia is now developing its own Compact. The Liberia Compact will be posted here when it is complete.
Short papers, primarily in preparation of the 2010 High Level Meeting, outlining the 'economic case for water and sanitation' were drafted for several countries, utilizing the best available information. National level data was used when available. Where national data is lacking, data from neighboring countries, regional or global data was used. Since the 2010 High Level Meeting, other countries have also prepared 'economic cases.'
Country profiles, using data from the WHO-UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme (JMP), the UN-Water Global Annual Assessment of Sanitation and Drinking-Water (GLAAS) and the AMCOW Country Status Overviews (CSOs), were produced for each country attending the 2010 High Level Meeting.
Several External Support Agencies produced Profiles, in preparation of the 2010 High Level Meeting.
