| Abstract | Overview of the water and sanitation sector in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. It gives an outline of current programme activities and analysis of the major problems, and describe the humanitarian strategy that is basis for the response. In 2001, micro-level activities were targeted to the most vulnerable groups of the population. During the formulation of the 2002 CAP, this strategy was reviewed. It was recognised that the situation had improved in institutions, and would need to continue if the needs were to be met. At the same time, it was assessed that the programme was not reaching all of the targeted groups. The report includes sector project/activity sheets from various organizations active in the water and sanitation sector in DPRK as well as a chapter on laws and regulations. |
