WASH Agenda for Change (WA4C) Roadmap, Tools and Approaches

The Road to Universal Access to WASH services at District Level in Uganda

The two day workshop was organised by IRC Uganda for the WA4C members. It was aimed to:

1. Orient all WA4C partners on the overall roadmap and the main steps and tools in the roadmap (those in use, and those newly developed)
2. Jointly review and harmonise their understanding of the WA4C
3. Share progress on the Uganda WA4C – what has been done and developments of the national hub
4. Review, analyse and or harmonize the proposed roadmap, tools and approaches and agree on how these can be used in Uganda and specifically in the districts where the different partners operate
