- ‘Best practice’ models of sector governance rarely work; context-specific responses can be more efficient and more effective
- This means starting with existing policies, institutions and incentives to develop ‘best fit’ approaches to water, sanitation and hygiene services
- Political economy analysis helps, particularly when focused on a specific, clearly defined operational challenge
