Access to Safe Drinking Water, Sanitation and Hygiene

Utthan’s key experiences in this thrust area lie in developing gender sensitive institutional mechanisms and technologies interwoven with the idea of women’s leadership and community participation in planning, implementation and monitoring and feeding these learnings at the policy level. Additional experience in sanitation (tailormade according to geography, ability and sustainability) was gained through Utthan’s People’s Learning Centre on Water & Sanitation. It is currently sharing its experience with 11 organisations through training and monitoring support in 4 other states, along with continued advocacy on the issue.
