ActionAid and WaterAid consulted experienced activists and thinkers to gather a nuanced analysis and chart a global path forward for collective advocacy on WASH and gender. Outlined here are the recommendations garnered from the open consultation – compiled from 67 contributors from 34 countries spanning the breadth of the Global South, with input from the Global North too. This document summarizes the initial discussions emerging from the e-consultation, together with a virtual event co-organized by ActionAid and WaterAid in October 2020, and points towards an agenda for further debate and action.
