IRC CAMPAIGNS
Giving Tuesday - Support us in keeping water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) systems working by making a donation.
Expose the System - Bringing effective and decisive political leadership to bear on WASH requires that we expose the system; making it visible and actionable to those with power. This campaign aims to do just that.
Propeller - The direct mail campaign juxtaposing a clichéd image of a young woman at a gushing, life-giving water pump with an absurd image of a man holding a propeller that purports to be an airline. The line reads ‘if this (the pump) is a lasting water supply...then this (the propeller) is an airline.’
Patrick's Poo - This video campaign highlights the global sanitation crisis – 4.5 billion people do not have access to safe sanitation – and coincided with World Toilet Day on 19th November 2017. The 1.30' minute film dramatises the fact that alongside toilets, people need proper sanitation systems – ''a toilet is just a hole full of sh*t, unless there is a (sanitation) system to deal with it''.
IRC CEO Patrick Moriarty was joined on the SIWI sofa by real examples of positive government leadership. Representing the voice of political and technocratic leadership respectively were the Minister of Sanitation and Water Resources Ghana, Honourable Cecilia Abena Dapaah and the Commissioner of Rural Water and Sanitation Uganda, Engineer Joseph Oriono Eyatu. Watch the interview.
'Sustainable water and sanitation services for everyone, leaving no one behind, can only be delivered by strong national and local WASH systems. The challenge isn't in knowing that, the challenge is in knowing in how to build those.' Watch Patrick Moriarty's opening keynote for All systems go!
