Abstract | The IRC Ghana programme contributes to a vision of strong national systems at district and national level that deliver and maintain universal access to water, sanitation and hygiene, as well as addresses other water-related SDG 6 targets. We partner with the Ministry of Sanitation and Water Resources and Asutifi North District to build WASH systems at district and national level. By establishing change hubs and working in partnership with local government and NGOs, we are working towards WASH services for everyone. The IRC Ghana country programme established the baseline for one focus district, Asutifi North in the Brong Ahafo central region, and at the national level using a combination of consultations with sector stakeholders, existing sector data, and assessments around the building blocks and QIS ladders to better understand the strengths and weaknesses of the current local systems and service levels at district level and the overall performance at national level. We recommend you also read the strategy framework as an additional source of information. |
