This final research report was prepared as an input to the Sustainable WASH Systems Learning Partnership focused on testing approaches to strengthen the sustainability and performance of WASH service delivery systems. As part of activities under the Sustainable WASH Systems Learning Partnership, local stakeholders in the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and People's Region (SNNPR) and Afar Region of Ethiopia prioritized action research on monitoring, infrastructure management and planning issues in rural water services. This report is the fourth report on these themes, building on earlier reports that shared interim findings. It covers the design of the planned research (including research questions, methodology, and data sources), the system strengthening activities that have been undertaken on these themes, and presents final results and lessons learned. Conclusions and recommendations are provided to guide future related activities in these focus areas and for projects undertaking a similar approach.
