Collaborative effort to address the global sanitation and hygiene challenge
The Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council (WSSCC) is an organisation committed to address the sanitation and hygiene challenge. The SDC will go further at the global level with a strong knowledge exchange, advocacy and communication on these issues. Through the Global Sanitation Fund – the Council’s operational arm – at least 20 most sanitation needy countries will be supported in implementing their national sanitation plans and strategies benefiting millions of poor people in the next 5 years.

Domaine de compétences |
WSSCC is the only organisation that adresses specifically the sanitation and hygiene challenges of vulnerable populations in the most needy countries. Its Global Sanitation Fund is the only global financing mechanism for sanitation. Itis therefore well positioned to implement the SDG number 6.2 about sanitation and hygiene. Its secretariat is hosted by UNOPS in Geneva. |
Priorités stratégiques de la Suisse et de l'organisation et leur cohérence |
Switzerland, SDC and its Global Programme Water Initiatives are strongly engaged on WASH – Water, Sanitation and Hygiene. The WSSCC Council focuses on countries with the largest gap on reaching international targets (using the SDGs) as well as its strategy to work with the most in need and most vulnerable within these is a further match with the Swiss focus. |

Effets directs de l'engagement actuel de l'organisation |

Effets directs de l'engagement actuel de la Suisse |
Contribute to the WSSCC’s excellent work on menstrual hygiene management and bring it to the attention of the Health and Education sector in the SDC and internationally, Further, the WSSCC is reaching out to the private sector at local level (e.g to small and medium sized enterprises as service providers for people that want improved toilets), and in particularly at global level (e.g. by establishing contacts through the Global Compact).
