The Importance of water supply and sanitation (WSS) for poverty reduction is inadequately represented in the development of poverty reduction strategy papers (PRSPs) in Sub-Sahara Africa. This is especially true of sanitation.

This paper provides an assessment of water and sanitation coverage in PRSPs in Sub-Sahara Africa through a review of 12 countries: Benin, Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Kenya, Malawi, Mauritania, Mozambique, Rwanda, Sinegal, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia.
 
The paper explores three questions: What is the nature of the opportunity presented by the PRSP and HIPC initiatives for the WSS sector id Sub-Sahara Africa ,  What is degree of WSS coverqage in PRSPs in Sub-Sahara Africa , How can WSS coverage and incorporation into PRSPs be improved
