Abstract

Drinking water sector reforms in Benin rural and semi-urban areas have broadly met the recommendations of international aid agencies, in compliance with "water market-based referential" (Baron and Maillefert, 2011). This latter has several principles : (1) the decentralization of municipalities' powers ; (2) the transfer of water management to private operators ; (3) water pricing and charging according to volume of consumption ; and (4) the involvement of all stakeholders in water management. Our article seeks to analyze the implementation and integration of these principles of water market-based referential within reforms, as well as examining at different territorial levels the way stakeholders assess this process. Our qualitative surveys conducted nationwide and in Djougou and Kpomassè municipalities suggest that stakeholders in decision-making and implementation do not really challenge water market-based referential principles. However, there are controversies and tensions in the way these principles are carried out and implemented.
