Introduction By 2030, Africa’s urban population will double, and the difficulties African cities currently face in providing sustainable water services will be exacerbated. “The Future of Water in African Cities: Why Waste Water?� (Jacobsen et al. 2012), argues that the traditional approach of one source, one system, and one discharge cannot close the water gap. A more integrated, sustainable, and flexible approach, which takes into account new concepts such as water fit to a purpose, is needed in African cities. The book provides examples of cities in Africa and beyond that have already implemented Integrated Urban Water Management (IUWM) approaches both in terms of technical and institutional solutions. Case studies explore the ways in which IUWM can help meet future water demand in African cities. Recent work carried out by Bahri (2012) on IUWM for the Global Water Partnership has also emphasized the necessity to examine the challenges posed by urban sprawl for urban planners and to recognize the need for coordinate, response, and sustainable resource management across sectors, sources, services and scales. The World Bank has recognized a need for an integrated approach to urban water management. As part hereof the issue has come to the forefront: What is the specific character of the water challenge in African cities and how can we compare the severity of the challenge, the need for integrated approach and the local capacity to respond to these challenges? The study presented in this companion volume is an initial attempt to answer this question. 2. Objective and Aims The objective of this study is to present the results of a comparative analysis of urban water management for 31 cities in Sub-Saharan Africa. This study is complementary to Jacobsen et al 2012. The present companion volume presents the methodology and general findings of the comparative analysis prepared as part of a wider diagnostic of urban water management in 31 cities in Africa.1 Section 3 describes the methodology used to compare the 31 cities according to a selection of variables and indicators. Section 4 analyses the results of the comparative analysis following 6 individual categories selected for the study of urban water systems in those 31 cities (urbanization, solid waste management, water supply service, water resources availability, sanitation service, and flood hazard). Within each of those categories data have been collected for a number of indicators, see Annex 1. The result is considered as an index of how each city performs relative to the other 31 cities for that particular category, see annexes 2 and 3. There are a number of challenges related to compare challenges and capacities across cities. Availability, validity and veracity of city level data are issues that may impact on the results. Ideally one would want city level data, with identical definitions and similarities in data collection verified by the responsible authorities. For this initial Africa IUWM index, we have relied on publicly available data, from global data bases to the extent possible as described in Section 3.2. The selection of data, categories and indicators 1 Specific and detailed results for each of the cities is available at http://water.worldbank.org/AfricaIUWM 3 has been discussed with a number of experts within the fields of urban planning, environment and water (see Acknowledgements). 3. Methodology A number of city level indicators exist. The most ambitious hereof is the Global City Indicators Previous attempts to categorize and classify cities according to environmental indicators have resulted in the work produced by the Economist Intelligence Unit and Siemens for cities in Europe, Latin America, Asia and Africa. (i.e. the green city index used by The Economist (2011) for 15 cities in Africa). The work by Siemens and The Economist has focused on the categorization and classification of cities according to their environmental performance and presents an emphasis on the evaluation of each city in comparison to the rest. The specific regional focus for Africa of this index and its methodology was used as source and reference for developing the comparative analysis of 31 cities in Africa used by Jacobsen et al. (2012). A methodology to characterize the different cities and to compare them was used based on the one followed by the Economist Intelligence Unit for the African Green City Index (The Economist Intelligence Unit 2011). This methodology was chosen for its simplicity and also due to the fact that it was able to limit the level of normalization and aggregation of the indicators by allowing a comparison of the data indicator by indicator. The choice of this methodology also avoided the ranking of the cities or their comparison against an established benchmark for it simply compares the values for each indicator for each city amongst themselves. 1.1 Selection of cities The 31 cities selected for this comparative study (see Table 1) were chosen based on whether they fulfilled some or all of the following criteria:  Rate of population growth (more than 3 percent growth rate)2  Size of the cities (more than 2,000,000 inhabitants)3  Presence of World Bank projects Table 1.

The variables chosen for the comparative analysis focus on the aspects of IUWM highlighted by Jacobsen et al. (2012) and present the main challenges and capacities for IUWM faced by major urban 5 areas in Africa. For the comparative analysis, six different variables were identified that would best represent the challenges and capacities of IUWM faced by cities in Africa: urbanization challenges, solid waste management, water resources availability, water supply services, sanitation services and flood hazards in river basins.4 An internal and multi-disciplinary group of managers and experts at the World Bank provided important insights and feedback on the selection of indicators. Out of the 6 variables selected, 16 indicators were identified as being relevant for the comparative analysis. All of the indicators are based on qualitative data collected from different types of sources. They aim to measure how each of the cities is faced by certain challenges or capacities associated with IUWM.5 Data for the 16 indicators was gathered between January and March 2012 as part of a wider exercise to collect data for a 31 cities diagnostic that informed a World Bank publication (Jacobsen et al. 2012). Characteristics of the selected indicators:  Representativeness: the first objective with the selection of indicators was to represent and cover as many aspects of each variable as possible (in terms of completeness, causality, and complementariness)  Local data: city-level indicators with specific local data were preferred so as to enable comparison between cities, and to present a more accurate description of the city-level situation. However, different proxies had to be used in some cases due to data constraints. Similarly, utility-level data varied depending on the utility’s coverage; mostly, coverage was at city-level, but some utilities are national (for example, Senegal).  Consistency: indicators are available consistently for all or most of the 31 cities were preferred.  Accessibility: indicators were selected to be accessible and useful to the end-user due to the target audience being both internal to the World Bank and external (city leaders);  Availability of data: indicator selection process was very much constrained by the availability, consistency, and reliability of the data for the 31 cities, which highlights the need to systematize such data for monitoring and planning purposes. Table 2. Selection of variables and indicators for the comparative analysis of 31 cities in Africa. Variables Indicator Urbanization challenge City growth rate, 1995-2010 4 In Jacobsen et al. (2012), the authors include “Economic and institutional strength� as a seventh variable in their 31 city diagnostic exercise. However, it is in this variable were most of the national proxies were used. For this reason, this seventh variable was excluded due to the fact that the main objective of the comparative study is to compare cities with city level data. 5 See Annex for description of indicators and sources. A fully detailed list of sources for each indicator will be available at http://water.worldbank.org/AfricaIUWM 6 Variables Indicator Percentage of city population living in informal areas Percentage of solid waste produced collected (public and private collection) Solid waste management Percentage of solid waste disposed of in controlled sites Average annual runoff Annual high flow (q10) Water resources availability Annual low flow (q90) Groundwater baseflow Basin yield Percentage of city population with improved water coverage Residential water consumption in city or utility coverage area Water supply service Percentage of collection rate from population billed Percentage of revenue water Percentage of population with access to improved sanitation Sanitation service Percentage of wastewater treated Flood hazard in river basin Frequency of flood events Note: see annex for the definition and sources for each indicator. 1.3 Definition, calculation of intervals and aggregation of indicators The data from the selected sub-set of indicators was then homogenized and the mean and standard deviation for each of the indicators was calculated. . The cities and their corresponding individual values for every sub-indicator have been assigned to one of 5 intervals depending on how much each of the individual values differed from the Mean plus or minus x-times the Standard Deviation. Each city value has been normalized then aggregated into one single indicator, giving equal weight to each of the sub- indicators. The values have been classified on a scale of 0 to 4 then matched with the interval they belong to according to their aggregated values. 7 The groups were classified based on different intervals calculated with the Mean score and Standard Deviation  0= Below Mean minus 1.5 times Standard Deviation  1= Between Mean minus 1.5 Standard Deviation and Mean minus 0.5 times Standard Deviation  2= Between Mean minus 0.5 times Standard Deviation and Mean plus 0.5 times Standard Deviation  3= Between Mean plus 0.5 times Standard Deviation and Mean plus 1.5 times Standard Deviation  4= Above Mean plus 1.5 times Standard Deviation Table 3.

The data used in this comparative study of 31 cities reflects some general inconsistencies in definitions, measurements, and data collection methodologies. The inherent complexities of the sector, the difficulties in measuring institutional arrangements, and the validation of the data found, added limitations to the data set. The calculation of the mean values and standard deviation required the homogenization of the values for each indicator which presented some problems due to the fact that values from different sources and different methodologies as well as from different years had to be treated equally in order to calculate the values for the mean and standard deviation. The reliability of data and sources also affects the 8 quality of the data used in this study and the different types of analyses that can be derived from the data. Following is a list of several of the main limitations affecting the data set:  The different methodologies used by the different data sources add uncertainty to the data set.  Different metrics and different definitions used by the sources add precision problems, which make the homogenization and integration of the indicators difficult,  The use of different sources for the same indicator and different years adds inconsistencies and complications when homogenizing and normalizing the data to compare the different indicators.  In some instances, the data was self-reported, which limited its validity. 2. Results The results of the comparative study of IUWM for 31 cities in Africa are represented following 6 different variables. Each one of the variables illustrates one dimension associated with IUWM as defined by Jacobsen et al. (2012). The comparative study presents the different dimensions of IUWM by establishing different levels of desirability for the results for each variable. These results are based on the relative position above or below the average for each one of the values for the indicators selected for the 31 cities (see Annex 1). According to Table 4. Categorization of variables according to level of desirabilityin the case of the variables “Urbanization challenge� and “Flood hazard in river basin�, the values for the 31 cities scoring below average will be more desirable. For the rest of the variables, values for the indicators above the average will be more desirable. A color gradation has been used to help clarify the degree of desirability for each variable (Green = more desirable; Red = less desirable). Figure 1 shows the overall position of the 31 cities of the study according to each one of the 6 variables studied. The columns in the tables contain the overall position above or below the average for each one of the variables. Table 4.

Comparative analysis of IUWM for 31 cities in Africa. 10 4.1 Urbanization challenge Urbanization growth of African cities presents a challenge for increasingly dense urban areas will require new planning tools to cope with the future demand of urban services and infrastructure. The results of the study on 31 cities in Africa show the variability and disparity of urban growth trends across the region. Overall however, they also corroborate the message that urbanization in Sub-Saharan Africa is happening, and fast: of the 31 cities, 20 are growing at an annual rate of more than 3 percent. Of these 20 cities, Yaoundé, Kumasi, Luanda and Abuja are way ahead with annual growth rates of more than 5 percent. The effects of this rapid urbanization will heighten the challenges associated with the provision of urban services experienced by local governments and other public and private stakeholders. The results of the comparative analysis of the urbanization challenge for the 31 cities also compare the level of informal settlements in each of the cities. The need for improved access to urban services will also be challenged by large concentrations of populations living in informal areas and the lack of urban planning in these settlements. In this sample of 31 cities, 7 of them have more than 70 percent of their population living in informal areas while the average for all 31 is 54.8 percent. Cities well above average like Yaoundé or Luanda have respectively 75 and 80 percent of their population living in informal settlements while Cotonou and Abidjan have the lowest percentage of population living in informal areas (20 and 14 percent respectively). 4.2 Solid waste management African cities in the study present varying levels of solid waste collection. The average solid waste collection rate for the 31 cities of this study is 51.7 percent, with 11 cities in the average category. Cities in Southern Africa are performing well relatively to the rest, showing rates higher than 70 percent (with Cape Town with 100 percent collection rate as the highest). The lowest collection rate is for two cities in Nigeria: Mbuji-Mayi (for which there is no formal collection system) and Kano, with 20 percent collection rate. For solid waste formally disposed of, the average for the 31 cities is 55 percent. However, waste collection and disposal figures vary widely across the sample of 31 cities from over 90 percent in the three South African cities of the study to 8 percent in Cotonou or 26 percent in Lusaka. 4.3 Water resources availability The comparative study of 31 cities includes a series of indicators which portray the level of access to water resources within the river basin providing information about the hydrologic conditions in each of the cities’ basins. The results of this comparative study for the variable on water resource availability within the basin show that the distribution of cities is concentrated around the average values for each of the 5 indicators used for this variable (20 of 31 cities). 5 cities are well below average in terms of water resources availability within their basin and no cities are well below average. Baseline data used for the comparative study highlights that the average basin yield basins within which the 31 cities are located is 188 million cubic meters per year, which gives an indication of the amount of water reliably available in those basin in an average year. Based on this indicator, 12 cities are located in 11 basins that have an annual basin yield over the average, with the highest value being Douala (1010 million cubic meters per average year) and the lowest being Khartoum with 2.61 million cubic meters. This shows the clear limitation of this indicator. Khartoum ranks low, because the basin itself has a low yield although the Nile river runs across Khartoum, the basin yield value measures the availability of water generated within the basin, and does not reflect what might be available as a result of rivers flowing through the basin. Utmost care must be used in interpreting this indicator. 4.4 Water supply service Results for the comparative analysis in water supply service highlight the variability in levels of water supply across the sample. Additionally, the need for basic water supply coverage for growing populations meets the reality of old and non-functioning infrastructures in many cities in Sub-Saharan Africa. The average individual residential water consumption for the 31 cities of the study is 65.7 liters per capita per day but for 13 of the 31 cities the daily residential water consumption is lower than 50 liters. As cities grow, future infrastructure projects will have to accommodate expected new water demands and the extension of service coverage. The average access to improved drinking water for the population of the 31 cities is 65.6 percent but 13 of the 31 cities in the sample are below the average, with the lowest coverage in Ibadan, Nigeria with 22 percent of the population with access to improved drinking water. Levels of utility service and coverage also vary for the 31 cities. The average collection rate from the population billed by the water utility in the 31 cities is 42.2 percent. Of the 31 cities, 19 have a collection rate above the average and 12 are underperforming in comparison to the total sample. The lowest collection rate levels are to be found in Ibadan, Nigeria (13 percent), Abuja also in Nigeria (20 percent) and Luanda in Angola (23 percent). The level of revenue water, which is the percentage of water produced that reaches the costumer, is on average 57.8 percent, with the highest levels for Khartoum (95 percent) and Dakar (80.5 percent) and the lowest for Abuja (20.11 percent) and Kano (40 percent). 4.5 Sanitation service In this study, sanitation services are depicted by the indicators of access to improved sanitation and percentage of wastewater treated. According to the comparative study, improvements in access to sanitation and wastewater treatment are needed in all of the 31 cities of the study. Access to improved sanitation averages 53.6 percent in the 31 cities but for 12 cities the levels of access to improved sanitation are lower. The cities of Brazzaville, Dar es Salaam and Lilongwe have the lowest access to improved sanitation, well below the average (10.5, 12.6 and 14 percent respectively). Moreover, levels of 41.7 percent and less of wastewater collected and treated by infrastructure for a sample of 8 cities amongst 13 (for the rest of the 31 cities data is missing) also illustrate the general environmental challenge caused by the pollution of water bodies and water supply sources around urban areas. 12 4.6 Flood hazard in river basin In this study, the level of flood hazard in the river basin for each city is represented by the expected average number of flood events per 100 years. The calculation is based on a hydrological model of peak- flow magnitude for annual runoff exceeded by 10 percent for years 1961–1999 (Annual high flow q10, see Annex 1) and on observed flood events from 1999 to 2007 from the Dartmouth flood observatory (Jacobsen et al. 2012). Based on that frequency of flood events, 12 of the 31 cities have an average level of frequency of floods of 9.9 events over 100 years. The results of the comparative study also show that 10 cities are well above the average in terms of expected frequency of flood events, with cities like Kano or Khartoum with the highest level of expected exposure to flood events (with 25 and 21 expected flood events respectively over a period of 100 years). Of the 31 cities in the study, 9 cities have levels of expected flood events below the average, with cities like Johannesburg, Lusaka or Harare with 2 expected flood events and Cape Town, Lagos and Luanda with 7 expected flood events over 100 years. 3. Conclusions The results of the comparative analysis of the different variables related with urban water management show varying levels of development for each of the 31 cities. Based on this comparative analysis and although general trends are difficult to establish and regional tendencies have to be taken into account, there is large room for improvement for all cities and for most of the indicators. The results of the comparative analysis of 31 cities in Africa also show that there is no clear “winner�. Although some cities, mainly in southern Africa, perform better on average than some of the other cities, they also have challenges of their own that cannot be overestimated. The need to plan the city of the future while acknowledging and accounting for the urban challenges of today demonstrates that an effort is needed to understand the necessities and also capacities faced by urban areas in terms of increasing risks linked to population growth or climate change that will affect access and delivery of services, sustainable development of resources. The development of this type of comparative study can be useful, provided that there is general and available data to be used. The preliminary work carried out for this report highlighted problems with data collection that need to be addressed if a wider and more detailed comparative exercise is to be undertaken. An emphasis on good quality city-level data needs to be pursued. Most often, data about urban water management generated at the local level is incomplete or inconsistent which presents problems for any type of comparative analysis. Sound management and planning decisions are based on rigorous information. The gaps and limitations of the data used in the study of 31 cities and the lack of consistent monitoring tools represent a serious hindrance to the understanding of current and future needs for basic urban services in Sub-Saharan Africa. Additionally, the analysis and comparison of the institutional aspects of urban water management proved difficult based on the lack of specific and up-to-date information about local policies and institutions. The task at hand should be to gather information in order to compare at a local level the 13 effects of policies and institutions on the provision of urban services and the management of integrated urban water systems. 6.
