At the Hilton Foundation, one of the most critical components of our philanthropic approach is to regularly evaluate our investments and approaches, share these findings with the field, and modify our approach as needed based on these learnings.
We’re pleased to share some findings from recent reviews of our investments in the three countries in Africa where our work is focused: Ethiopia, Ghana and Uganda. These country-specific reports follow our initial review of Rural Water Service Delivery Models in in the region published in September 2023.
The primary objective of these in-country reviews was to investigate the relevance of our investments as well as the effectiveness and sustainability of supported service delivery models (SDMs), including community-based management, publicly owned water utilities and private-sector approaches, such as Safe Water Enterprises (SWE).
