The need for this partnership arose from the ministry’s realisation and acknowledgment of the challenges facing South Africa with regard to water demand and supply Problem Statement and RequirementsNBF Approach A partnership network was set up and driven by a leading group of companies including Anglo American, Coca-Cola, Eskom, Nestle, SAB and Sasol The NBF, as a secretariat, brought these key players in the private sector together with representatives at the Ministry of Water Affairs. The partnership builds on outcomes of an exploratory workshop held by the Water Resources Group in conjunction with the UN Global Compact CEO Water Mandate in Cape Town. In its secretariat role, the NBF manages the partnership to ensure that the public-private relationship and dialogues resolve strategic challenges to up-scaling commercial water projects. The secretariat was initially funded by SAB, but this responsibility is ow being taken over by the members of the network
