Research
Research was an important element of Water for Women. The Water for Women Fund aimed to raise the bar in terms of gender equitable, disability and socially inclusive (GEDSI) research, analysis, design and program delivery in WASH, and in doing so to lead practice globally.
Our civil society organisations (CSOs) delivered GEDSI WASH projects including research activities; these activities were also inter-linked with other critical development issues such as water resources management (WRM), climate change adaptation (CCA), disaster risk reduction (DRR) and nutrition.
WASH Research Awards supplemented the CSO projects. Water for Women research programs contributed to the Water for Women Fund goals and outcomes, in particular:
Outcome 4. Strengthened use of new evidence, innovation and practice in sustainable gender and inclusive WASH by other CSOs, national and international WASH sector actors.
By documenting and sharing gender and socially inclusive evidence and effective practices with other CSOs, national and international sector actors, Water for Women contributed to this outcome.
