Project Overview

A2F Consulting supported the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) in conducting a Willingness to Pay (WTP) study in Tunisia to assess the economic value of reliable water supply. The project aimed to quantify the benefits of improved water availability for households, agribusinesses, and tourism, informing investment decisions under the Tunisia Compact.

Work Developed

• Assessed economic benefits of reliable water supply and costs of water shortages across households, firms, farms, and hotels
• Designed and implemented large-scale field surveys covering 900 households, 200 businesses, 300 farms, and 50 hotels
• Conducted focus group discussions and in-depth analysis to understand water usage patterns and constraints
• Evaluated willingness to pay for improved water services among different user groups
• Delivered an analytical report segmenting results by stakeholder group to inform policy and investment decisions

The assignment was delivered over 6 months and combined extensive primary data collection with rigorous analysis. Using CAPI-based surveys and stakeholder engagement, A2F generated actionable insights to support water sector investments and improve resource allocation under the Tunisia Compact.
