WASHINGTON, US – The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) says it is prepared to assist Caribbean governments in improving water and sanitation services for their populations.

The IDB said that regional countries can now apply for grants under the Aquafund, a new source of financing approved by the bank's board.

"The Aquafund is a fast-disbursing vehicle intended to help accelerate the development of projects in the water, sanitation and solid waste disposal sectors. It can be used to finance activities, ranging from pre-feasibility studies to technical training and knowledge dissemination, depending on specific local needs," the IDB said in a statement.
