3 Result Area 1 Result question 1a: To what extent has the ratio between crop yield and water use been improved in a sustainable manner in the target area of your programme ( more crop per drop )? Efficient water use in agriculture Agriculture in South Sudan is generally rainfed and water is not a limiting factor in the Southern region (Green belt) except for the recent manifestation of climate change. The Northern regions however receive less rainfall and previous irrigation schemes initiated have not been successful. Limited moisture conservation techniques are practiced in agriculture and scant data on rainfall and crop yield make this calculation difficult. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has been collecting these data although figures have not been consistent for South Sudan. With the launch of the WaPor database (FAO), agricultural yield data as well as evapotranspiration data can be measured in near real time through satellite data. This gives us the ability to monitor agricultural water use at large spatial and temporal scale. These data will support improved water management and policy making as well as farmers. In addition, it will allow for improved results reporting. It is expected that we will be using the WaPor database exclusively for results reporting in Currently, we are working on a pilot to show results with regards to undefined biomass water productivity on crop lands (indicator 3). From July 2017 onwards, the second phase of the WaPor database will be launched. With the second phase, we will be able to define water productivity and yield scores of wheat, maize and rice. For now, the biomass water productivity can be used to follow trends in time. Indicator 1: Agricultural yields sorghum (kg/ha) (2010) No data N/A 771 kg/ha 856 kg/ha 1367 kg/ha No data No data FAOstat Indicator 2: Water Productivity sorghum (kg/m3) (2010) No data N/A 0,193 kg/m3 0,214 kg/m3 0,342 kg/m3 0,355 kg/m3 No data FAOstat Indicator 3: Biomass water productivity (kg/m3) 0,97 kg/m3 (2011) 1,21 kg/m3 1,23 kg/m3 1,18 kg/m3 1,04 kg/m3 0,95 kg/m3 0,92 kg/m3 FAO WaPOR database Result question 1.b:To what extent has your programme contributed to this result? The Embassy's programme has led to increased horticultural production due to larger availability of irrigation water through boreholes. Efficient water use of course plays an important role here; water is the most important factor to determine the size of the irrigation plot. In coming years techniques will be introduced to increase the water efficiency of horticulture supported under the programme.

4 Assessment of results achieved by NL across the entire Result Area 1 Efficient water use in agriculture Assess achieved results compared to planning: C Results achieved poorer than planned. Reasons for result achieved: The two water projects have been involved in water sources construction and supporting vegetable groups over the past year but were significantly disrupted by the outbreak of violence in July 2016 that forced the evacuation of their staff for almost three months. This significantly reduced their capacity to show better results. In addition, for sustainability, the model has been to allow communities to intitate the vegetable gardening by themselves and the project provides support to those that have shown this interest. Such an approach always has a slow start but is exopected to be more sustainable. Implications for planning: Planning for both projects foresees an intensification of activities for 2017 partly to compensate for the disruption of If there are no special circumstances, results in 2017 are expected to be higher, resulting in more horticultural output and produce for the local market. Result Area 2 Result question 2.1a: To what extent has there been progress in the development and implementation of plans for sustainable growth and water safety (incl. good governance) in the target area of your programme? Improved river basin management and safe deltas South Sudan developed its water policy in 2007 and its strategic framework in 2013 and these have been the guiding documents for the sector. A draft water bill is yet to be passed by parliament. Since the eruption of conflict in 2013, no signifcant progress has been registered towards sustainable water safety due to lack of government funding for a national policy, both at central and at local levels. Donors fund most of the investments in the water sector, carried out together with local authorities.

Both projects are working on systems for tracking and predicting water flows in four rivers and form basin management boards on at least one of the rivers (river Kinyeti). Also, both projects carry out surveys as to the availability of ground water. Both tools already contribute to better water planning in the regions supported, though progress could have been larger.

5 Result question 2.2a: To what extent has transboundary and collective river basin management been improved in the target area of your programme? South Sudan is member of the Nile Basin initiative which is a body that brings together countries that share the Nile waters with the intention of forging cooperation among them. Through this body, regional countries carry out common projects to foster political and economic cooperation in relation to the management of the Nile waters. The two projects do not fund transboundary basin initiatives at the moment, so no improvement has been realized in Indicator 1: Percentage of Low Human Development Development Countries that are in an advanced stage of transboundary agreements (0) 2010 for specific river basins South Sudan Ministry of water resources data Number of joint projects developed by transboundary countries 0 (2010) 2 (Egyptian project, ENTRO-NBI) (NBI joint project- designed) NBI (ENTRO data) Number of joint projects developed by transboundary countries 0 (2010) 2 (Egyptian project, ENTRO-NBI) (NBI joint project- designed) NBI (ENTRO data) Result question 2.2b: To what extent has your programme contributed to this result? There are no transboundary river basin management activities supported by The Netherlands in South Sudan. However, as a result of the integrated water resource management projects funded by the Dutch Government in Lakes and Eastern Equatoria States awareness on water resource managemement is being created including transboundary water management. Given these are the only IWRM projects in the country and strategic location of South Sudan, sharing the White Nile, and another river (targeted under water for Lakes project) may push transboundary water resource management onto the National water resource management agenda where support from international water partners (Dutch actors) may be highly needed in the near future.

6 Assessment of results achieved by NL across the entire Result Area 2 Improved river basin management and safe deltas Assess achieved results compared to planning: C Results achieved poorer than planned. Reasons for result achieved: In the last half of 2016 some activities (especially basin management boards) in this area have been suspended as a result of ongoing active armed conflict in the project areas that hampered accessibility and resulted in displacement of people. The fragile political situation in the country also means that the water bill has not been passed which undermines progress being made by the project. Implications for planning: The IWRM components of the water programmes have been reduced to focus on data gathering and formation of basin management boards with the emphasis on utilization of data and knowledge acquired later in development initiatives and policy making processes for the Country. Result Area 3 Result question 3.1a: How many people (male/female) have gained sustainable access an improved water source or improved sanitairy facility and to what extent has governance been improved on this topic in the target area of your programme? Water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) Provision of safe drinking water and sanitary facilities and water governance have seen limited progress since the independence of South Sudan in This situation has been compounded by the outbreak of conflict in South Sudan in 2013 that has limited capacity of the governement to invest in the sector, hence leaving most of the interventions to development partners. Netherlands, Germany, Japan and UNICEF have achieved in their supported areas/target groups significant progress.

7 Result question 3.1b: To what extent has your programme contributed to this result? The programme has led to substantial improvements for the target area. The 2017 target of 180,000 people to be provided with safe drinking water was already exceeded, progress was made to provide 20,000 people with access to improved sanitation out of target of 45,000 and hygiene education has also started picking up with 11,875 people reached with messages. Indicator Baseline Target 2017 Result 2012 Column1 Result 2014 Result 2015 Result 2016 Source Indicator 1: Number of people (urban/rural, male/female) reached with sustainable access to, and using, improved water sources through central programmes (updated figure) : (all rural), 0 (urban) Project progress reports Indicator 2: Number of people (urban /rural, male/female) reached with sustainable access to, and using, improved sanitation facilities through : 0 (urban) 55,000 (rural) 65000: 0 (urban) 65,000 (rural) (all rural), 0 (urban) Project progress reports central programmes Indicator 3: Number of people (urban/rural, male/female) reached with hygiene education and social marketing programmes through central programmes (all rural), 0 (urban) Project progress reports Indicator 4: Number of communities/schools declared open defecation free (ODF) through central programmes n.a. n.a Project progress reports Result question 3.2a: To what extent have water management aspects and a more business oriented way of working been applied in your WASH programmes? Overall, business oriented ways of working in WASH are limited in South Sudan and more so for Dutch companies. This is partly because of the nascent nature of the sector and more recently because of ongoing political instability in the country. Nevertheless there are significant numbers of Dutch NGOs and various Dutch firms implementing projects in the country and mainly contributing to capacity strengthening of water user committees and local governments. Result question 3.2b: To what extent has your programme contributed to this result? The two functional water projects have been formulated and are being implemented by Dutch private sector (NGOs and firms) with strong focus on private sector involvement in operation and maintence for sustainable outcomes. Dutch knowledge (technical inputs and assignments) and supplies are also solicited from Netherlands based companies. Indicator 1: Number of countries where new partnerships have been developed to sustainably manage water resources for example via PPPs and water operator partnerships (WOPs) NL Embassy in Juba documentation

8 Assessment of results achieved by NL across the entire Result Area 3 Water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) Assess achieved results compared to planning: B Results achieved as planned. Reasons for result achieved: Planning in this area could be implemented well, despite some set back bacause of insecurity, due to good cooperation with contractors and realastic planning. Implications for planning: No need to change planning. In 2017 stronger emphasis will be given to capacity building for Operation and Maintenance (O&M) by training water user committees (including training on financial management) and tariff setting for small water distribution systems. Result Area 4 Result question 4.1a: How has the added value (knowledge, expertise, products and services) of the Dutch water sector been deployed in the preparation and implementation of programmes in the water sector? Trade and development cooperation Much of the Dutch added value has been utilized on the Netherlands funded activities in South Sudan. During the identification, formulation and implementation extensive use has been made of the knowledge, expertise, products and services of the Dutch water sector. The following Dutch water actors were or are involved. UNESCO-IHE, CINOP, WUR/Alterra, Companies: Deltares, Will2Sustain, Meta Meta Research, Quest-Consult, Mott MacDonald, Witteveen+Bos, WE-consult, NGO's: Dorcas and SNV as well as other organizations: VNG, Netherlands Water Partnership (NWP).

The two water programmes; Water for Eastern Equatoria and Water for Lakes have seen substantial involvement of the above Dutch Companies, NGOs and Knowledge institutes. The formulation of the projects were carried out by these knowledge institutes and companies. Monitoring and mid term evaluation of these projects have also been done by Dutch companies.

9 Result question 4.2a: What are the results of the transition to a more trade related relationship in the water sector? South Sudan being a fragile state, there is as yet no transition to a trade related relationship in water.
