Water, sanitation and hygiene

Water, dignity and everyday life.

Our WASH work connects water access, sanitation and hygiene with the people who use these services. Explore photographs and field footage from our work in Isiolo.

From field documentation to lasting results

These images record activity at the water point. Our results framework also calls for follow-up evidence on reliability, water quality and sustained access to understand the longer-term outcomes.

The need

Start with the community and the evidence

A water point alone does not guarantee safe, reliable access. Water quality, maintenance, hygiene practices and inclusion all matter.

Our approach

From assessment to sustained use

  • Assess water access and service reliability with communities
  • Rehabilitate water points and improve sanitation facilities
  • Support hygiene promotion and community ownership
  • Agree maintenance responsibilities and monitor sustained use
Results-based programme design

Measure delivery, change and contribution separately

Intended outputs

Water points and sanitation facilities delivered and inspected.

Intended outcomes

More households reporting reliable use of safe water and sanitation services.

Long-term contribution

A contribution to improved health, learning and household well-being.

Evidence approach: Functionality checks, water-quality evidence and household access surveys.

Each project framework connects conception and inception to inputs, activities and results, with assumptions, risks and feedback loops. Long-term impact is assessed through evidence, not inferred from completed activities.

Listen, adapt and review

Our plans connect conception and inception with inputs, activities, outputs, outcomes and impact. Community feedback should inform decisions at every stage, with clear responsibilities and follow-up evidence.
