School WASH Mapping - Background• A joint initiative by SNV – UNICEF- WaterAid in 2,300
schools in16 districts (2009)
• Purpose: To get a comprehensive picture of WASH situation in all schools in the selected districts; to explore the underlying causes of the (poor) situation; and to develop strategies for improvement
• Physical mapping: Data collection
• Governance and Validation Inquiry
• District Feedback Meetings
• National Stakeholders Workshop

A major barrier to hygiene

Facilities become
abandoned or unused
Not attractive to

Heavy burden for effective

Rapid deterioration of facilities
Overcrowded
Inadequate facilities

Weak Governance StructureUnclear role; responsibility and ownershipUnclear and ineffective coordination on
funding and institutional arrangements at National level
No arrangement for O&M of Facilities Inadequate inspection and enforcement Low level of community participation and
consultationWeak leadership and guidance from
LGAs and Village GovernmentLow level of trust between community and
village leaders

Poor Resource Allocation and Management
• Discrepancy between schools in urban and rural/remote area • CG/LGCDG are late, fragmented; inadequate; unpredictable• Weak transparency on resource allocation• Top down direction on fund utilization• No distinction between government’s fund and parent’s
contribution• Low priority given to School WASH at all levels
![Page 15: School Water, Sanitation and Hygiene SNV Experience](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568168ab550346895ddf5137/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Recommendations• Focus more on quality (of the learning environment and achievement) and not
just quantity (enrolment rate)
• Strengthen national coordination and management for School WASH
• Identify champion to strengthen political support and priority for SWASH
• Strengthen SWASH monitoring, inspection and enforcement
• Explore fund flow mechanisms for SWASH from central government to schools
• Provide financial incentives for good performing schools
• Improve financial transparency at all levels
• Strengthen community involvement and ownership in SWASH
• Strengthen home and school linkages to improve the effectiveness of SWASH

From Mapping to Action: Achievements to Date
• MOU Between 4 Ministries responsible for Sanitation and
Hygiene signed in 2010 and is being operationalised• National School WASH Guidelines to be developed by 4
Ministries with support from SNV and UNICEF (2010)• National Strategic Plan for School WASH (2010 – 2015)• National Sanitation and Hygiene Policy is being developed (with
higher priority and attention given to WASH in Schools)• Thematic Working Group for School WASH established in 2010;
chaired by MOH and MOEVT; supported by SNV and UNICEF

Reflection on the 6 key messages• Contribute evidence: Yes, very much • Increase investment : Potentially high
• Demonstrate quality : Not yet showed results• Monitor WASH in Schools: Still weak with no
enforcement, need to be linked to performance monitoring and incentive-based fund allocation
• Involve multiple stakeholders: Starting • Engage those who set policies: Yes, very much
![Page 20: School Water, Sanitation and Hygiene SNV Experience](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568168ab550346895ddf5137/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Taking WASH in Schools to Scale - Challenges Ahead!
• Low priority for WASH in Schools: A difficult trade-off• Teachers participation: Workload vs. motivation and incentive • Engaging community and parents participation: Building trust &
cohesion; changing of mind-set• Enforcing minimum standard vs. fund availability • Investing in WASH in Schools: Some for All or All for Some?• Coordination at all levels: Agreeing on roles; responsibilities and
mandates; harmonizing guidelines and standards.• Performance monitoring• Uncoordinated Funding for WASH in Schools • Political interference vs. Political support
![Page 21: School Water, Sanitation and Hygiene SNV Experience](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568168ab550346895ddf5137/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Priority: Desks, Chairs or Latrines?
![Page 22: School Water, Sanitation and Hygiene SNV Experience](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568168ab550346895ddf5137/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Why should there be vast differences?
![Page 23: School Water, Sanitation and Hygiene SNV Experience](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568168ab550346895ddf5137/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
What can be done to bridge these gaps?
![Page 24: School Water, Sanitation and Hygiene SNV Experience](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568168ab550346895ddf5137/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
And more equity for children?
![Page 25: School Water, Sanitation and Hygiene SNV Experience](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062521/568168ab550346895ddf5137/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
CLEAN AND HEALTHY SCHOOLS• Better health and well-being for school children• Better learning achievements, better learning outcomes
INCLUSIVE SCHOOL WASH• More girls to attend and stay in school • More opportunities for children with disabilities
IMPROVED SCHOOL HYGIENE AND SANITATION• Improve hygiene practices at home• Influence positive S&H behavior in family & community
Investing in WASH in Schools – Investing in a Healthier, Happier and Brighter Future
Call to Action - Why WASH in Schools?
