Climate Change Response for Inclusive WASH: A guidance note for Plan International Indonesia
Back to Search
The Institute for Sustainable Futures at the University of Technology Sydney (ISF-UTS) partnered with civil society organisations (CSOs), Plan International in Indonesia (YPII), Plan International Australia (PIA), WaterAid Timor-Leste and WaterAid Australia to conduct research to inform how the CSOs address the impacts of climate change on their Water for Women projects.
The research project draws from a range of climate change adaptation, water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) and gender and social inclusion concepts and on recent research approaches for assessing climate change.
This Guidance Note provides activities and recommendations to Plan International Indonesia for integrating considerations of climate change into its existing inclusive WASH programming, which focuses on STBM (Community-led Total Sanitation). It was jointly developed by ISF-UTS and Plan International Indonesia.
Although this Guidance Note is tailored to the Plan International Indonesia STBM program, the guidance is also intended to provide inspiration to the wider global WASH sector and demonstrate the relevance of gender and social inclusion in responding to climate change impacts on WASH.

Climate-Resilient and Inclusive WASH (CERIA)
Policy and strategy
Knowledge and Learning is central to Water for Women. It is a key priority of all partners and positions the Fund as an important contributor to global knowledge development and sharing in the water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) sector. Fund generated evidence, centred on innovative, climate-resilient and gender and socially inclusive WASH, supports partners to program for long-term impact. It also provides the basis to influence sector-wide development policy and practice globally, particularly around these cross-cutting themes.
Continual reflection, collaborative learning, knowledge development and exchange are important elements of Water for Women, which combined with effective programming, support partners to lead practice globally and raise the bar on climate-resilient, gender and socially inclusive WASH research, analysis, design and program delivery.
In the first phase of Water for Women (2018-2022), our civil society organisation and research partners developed and shared a wealth of resources through their projects. You can explore a selection of these resource highlights here, and how they link to the building blocks for climate-resilient WASH, drawn from our report, Knowledge and Practice Gaps in Climate Resilient Inclusive WASH.
