Wetlands and Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH)

Understanding the linkages

Language(s): English , Author(s): WASH partners; compiled by Wetlands International, MetaMeta Research, Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust Consulting (WWTC)

This book presents a baseline of information that helps understanding of how WASH and wetland service provision are connected, why these linkages are vital and how they can be better managed. Furthermore, the publication presents a set of principles to be taken on by sector professionals as a way forward to improve integration in the future. The publication is the result of an ongoing collaboration between individuals and organisations from the wetland conservation sector and the water supply, sanitation and hygiene sector.

The health and livelihoods of people in rural and peri-urban areas in developing countries is often strongly related to ecosystems services and water supply, sanitation and hygiene (WASH). Although provision of both is integral to water management, the linkages between the two are rarely recognised in approaches to ecosystem management or WASH provision.
