Water, sanitation, hygiene, and community health are deeply interconnected determinants of wellbeing — and integrated, community-led approaches achieve far more than siloed interventions. This advanced programme equips senior practitioners to design and lead integrated WASH and community health programming that delivers lasting health outcomes in development settings.
Designed for an international audience from officer to director level, the programme integrates community-led sanitation, water management, hygiene and behaviour change, community health systems, and the governance and sustainability of services. Participants learn to lead programming that is systems-aware, behaviour-focused, and built for sustainability beyond the project cycle.
