As part of its follow-up and review mechanisms for the SDGs, member states are encouraged to conduct regular national reviews of progress made towards the achievement of these goals through an inclusive, voluntary and country-led process. This guide is intended to explain the role of civil society organisations in monitoring corruption in the SDGs, as well as how to identify potential indicators and data sources for this purpose. Throughout the guide, there are country examples of indicator selection, inclusive follow-up review processes and approaches to corruption monitoring. A chapter is dedicated to mainstreaming anti-corruption in monitoring SDG 6 on water and sanitation.

This document outlines current methodologies to measure and assess the quality of water governance and management in medium- and low-income countries. The guide proposes a framework that can be applied to any water governance assessment, based on different approaches for assessments around water integrity and anti-corruption in the water sector. It evaluates the usefulness of the application of different tactics to assess corruption and provides an eight-step assessment plan for any water governance integrity assessment.  

Water Governance Facility. 2013. Mapping Integrity of Water Resource Management and Relevant Capacities in Latin America. http://www.watergovernance.org/documents/WGF/Reports/WaterIntegrityMappingofLatinAmerica-ENG-Final.pdf  

This report by the WGF is a mapping exercise of integrity of water management in Latin America that can be adapted for other regions and places. The report provides a flexible methodology to assess how current water management systems operate and to assess their internal governance. While Latin America is a large region with different climates and with differing water management systems, the report makes a point of saying that the information within it can be translated to other regions, and that the advice they provide for practitioners is applicable on a global scale.
