Progress report for
Water for all, water justice
Achievement at a glance
1) We have participated at national and international events to foster the need to recognise the global water crisis and to protect and manage water as a common good.2) Our programmes in Africa and Latin America have promoted water governance based on human rights principles, especially the equal participation of women.
3) We have organized capacity building actions in all the countries where we work in
4) We have promoted the use of accessible, disaggregated and public information systems that specifically include information on the most vulnerable groups
5) We have prioritised actions to achieve at least basic access to reach the most vulnerable and marginalised populations and areas, with special focus on sanitation and hygiene, including the management of the menstrual hygiene.
6) We have carried out exhaustive monitoring of Spanish Official Development Assistance in the WASH sector and have promoted WASH policy coherence in the Spanish external action
Challenges faced in implementation
We face challenges both in local WASH projects in Latin America and Caribe as in rising awareness and advocacy actions.We need more resources to increase the results
