Water and Sanitation

We will focus on increasing equitable access to safe drinking water and sanitation to end open defecation. We will continue to focus on rural communities, while seeking to support underserved peri-urban or small-town communities and market centres with sanitation, safe water provision, hygiene messaging, and systems-based approaches. We will also support health facilities, schools, Community Based Childcare Centres (CBCCs), and community institutions to ensure the most in-need are reached. This includes ensuring WASH facilities are accessible to people with disabilities, and promoting safe menstrual hygiene facilities and practices for adolescent girls.
