Detailed Description

The Guidance: Integrating gender equality into water, sanitation and hygiene projects aims to help companies successfully transform their strategic commitments on community WASH and gender equality into integrated projects resulting in:

  • Better, more sustainable WASH outcomes
  • A clearer pathway to gender equality and women’s empowerment

While this ambition to integrate gender equality into community WASH is not new, this guidance reflects a clear shift in intent and systematic approach to gender in WASH project design, moving commitments to concrete outcomes.

The guidance is split into two documents:

  • One aimed at Corporates outlining the WHY and some key principles for developing integrated WASH and gender projects
  • One aimed at NGOs and implementing partners outlining the HOW

This document is the former.
