    The international humanitarian system is exploring ways to respond differently to meet needs in the face of the funding gap. The Grand Bargain, for example, is making some progress in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the response system. In parallel, there is an increase in the use of disaster risk financing instruments to address needs using a more timely, pre-planned, risk-informed approach. Having the right funding mechanisms in place to be able to respond appropriately in advance of, or as quickly as necessary after, a shock is critical. In its most ambitious form, a more risk-informed approach to humanitarian action - including disaster risk financing - is being developed by a number of key actors in the humanitarian system. Humanitarian actors are also contributing expertise to better dealing with the underlying causes of vulnerability and fragility through better development responses in coordinated humanitarian-development nexus approaches. This study, commissioned by the Directorate-General for Civil Protection and Humanitarian Aid Operations (DG ECHO), explores the role that pre-arranged financing can play in reducing or mitigating disaster impacts by supporting anticipatory action and response. It also makes specific recommendations as to how DG ECHO could better integrate risk financing and risk-informed approaches into its programming and funding, in order to facilitate a timelier and more effective response to humanitarian crises.

    Many rural communities in sub-Saharan Africa still lack clean water for basic needs such as drinking and washing. Even where water points have been constructed, many break down prematurely or provide inadequate, seasonal or poor quality water supplies. While techno-managerial factors are relevant in explaining these problems, attention needs to be paid to the institutional and political-economic dynamics shaping policy outcomes on the ground. This study examines the political economy of rural water supply in Ethiopia, using a literature review and interviews with government staff and water sector stakeholders to unpick systemic obstacles to sustainable access to water. It reccomends that sector stakeholders: inform and build on the 2018 National WASH Inventory, invest in water resource mapping and monitoring, support legalisation of Water and Sanitation Committees and aim to improve accountability, leverage drought events to reframe the conversation.
