Strengthening the Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) Sector, Considering Equity and Inclusion in WASH
The Sector Strengthening Evaluation is a meeting to discuss with all sector stakeholders working on the Water, Sanitation, Hygiene (WASH) and gender equality, disability, and social inclusion (GEDSI) in WASH. This evaluation is carried out to review the work that has been done, share experiences to see the progress of the WASH sector and also see how gender equity, disability and social inclusion are integrated into WASH.

In 2020, the sector evaluation was conducted at the municipality level, in the municipalities of Liquiçá and Manufahi, in order to address WASH and gender equity, disability, and social inclusion in WASH in both municipalities. This evaluation was conducted with a one- day workshop to discuss or review the situation of WASH sector ‘building blocks’ such as coordination, strategic planning, financing, institutional arrangements, service delivery, accountability, monitoring and environment. In each block we considered different components including one or two components regarding GEDSI in WASH for each building block. In the assessment of sector building blocks, participants rated each component in the block based on pre- prepared descriptions of phases such as weak, transitioning, strong and ideal.
