Giving Voice to the ‘Silent Partner’: The Environment and Its Role in Multistakeholder<br />
Partnerships that Deliver <strong>Water</strong> and Sanitation Services<br />
Convenors: Building Partnerships for Development in <strong>Water</strong> and Sanitation (BPD), International Development Research<br />
Centre (IDRC) and Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI)<br />
Environmental considerations are usually not well represented<br />
directly within water-sanitation delivery partnerships. This event<br />
reviews the role of the environment as the ‘silent partner’ in<br />
partnership negotiations. Presenting findings from BPD and<br />
IDRC’s research in Latin America, this interactive session will<br />
debate how water quantity and quality issues impact on how<br />
partnerships are structured in developing countries.<br />
