What is WASH?
WASH stands for water, sanitation, and hygiene. As a sector, WASH helps millions of communities access water, sanitation, and hygiene services.
The WASH program meets the public needs of billions of people without sustainable access to water and sanitation services. In contrast, the burden of collecting water, borne chiefly by women, is reduced. This leads to better health and educational outcomes in healthcare centers and schools.
