OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Kenya adopted a devolved government structure under a new Constitution in 2010. Implementation challenges have covered a wide range of issues: how best to unbundle water and sanitation services, revenue sharing between the national and county governments, responsibility for inherited liabilities, institutional and governance frameworks for cross-county bulk water delivery, and a country characterised by stark resource disparities. This seminar explores some of the options available to ensure that, these challenges notwithstanding, the constitutional right to universal access to a basis supply of water and sanitation services remains at the core of the governance and policy frameworks adopted.
