The general objective of the Technical Cooperation (TC) is to contribute to reducing environmental pollution in the Motagua River Basin by promoting the integrated management of wastewater discharges and solid waste. The specific objectives are to: (i) strengthen the capacities of national and local public institutions for the adequate management of water, sanitation, and solid waste, within the framework of the operations "Environmental Sanitation Program in the Motagua River Basin" (GU-L1188) and "Reform Program to Improve Efficiency in Infrastructure Development and Service Delivery in Guatemala" (GU-L1204); and (ii) develop pre-investment studies for strategic projects aimed at the integrated management of wastewater discharges and/or solid waste. To achieve these objectives, the TC will provide technical assistance; advisory services on legal and regulatory, financial, and green and circular economy matters; and support for the development of awareness-raising and outreach campaigns, among other activities aimed at strengthening local service providers and fostering opportunities for private sector participation.
