摘要
In 2015, the Kenyan Water Services Regulatory Board (WASREB) introduced a corporate governance indicator for the Kenyan water sector to measure the extent to which water service providers contribute to enhanced sector performance and the realization of the human right to safe drinking water and sanitation. An assessment shows that a utility that performs well on governance is very likely to perform well on the nine key performance indicators. Overall, the governance indicator serves to inform the public and guide utilities to improve their governance. It also provides guidance to partners and development institutions which may support the utilities in the future.
