Systems approaches can have a significant impact on the planning and management of sustainable water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services. SWS investigated the hypothesis that improving local stakeholders' understanding of the interconnected factors that influence service delivery leads to more holistic decisions that result in improved service delivery outcomes. An SWS research team interviewed hundreds of service delivery stakeholders engaged in professionalized maintenance and facilitated collective action approaches in Ethiopia, Uganda, and Kenya. Researchers examined shifts in how stakeholders conceptualized factor interactions throughout the 5-year duration of SWS.
