From 2016-2019, the India Sanitation Coalition (ISC) in collaboration with TARU Leading Edge and IRC ran "Insights: a WASH Dialogue and Partnership Forum". The forum organised regular expert panel discussions for WASH professionals and experts, business leaders, policy makers, development experts, government officials, sustainability and environment professionals, civil society and businesses.
In 2020, after the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, IRC joined a new partnership with the SuSanA India chapter, WaterAid India and the India Sanitation Coalition (ISC), which organises thematic online discussions and webinars.
