Since the inception of World Vision’s WASH programming, bringing

life-changing clean water to the forgotten, the marginalized, and the

vulnerable has been central to our mission and organizational identity.

This distinctive, unwavering focus will remain foundational during the

2021-2025 business plan. Equally important, however, is the need to

adapt to the shifting priorities of the countries and communities where

we serve, strengthening the systems that sustain water supply and

ensure quality, with a continued drive toward universal coverage.

OUR APPROACH

In response to learnings from the 14-country study with UNC, World

Vision will prioritize improving water quality at the systems level;

working with governments to move beyond simply providing flowing

water to providing flowing water that is free from bacteriological and

chemical contamination (from the source to the point of use).

Doubling down on the shift from boreholes with hand pumps to piped-

water systems that deliver water as close to the household as possible

(facilitating household connections when possible) will have significant

benefits in improving water quality by reducing the need for transport

and storage of water before use.

Piped water at the household level relieves women and girls of the

disproportionate burden of water collection and significantly benefits

hygiene improvements by empowering households to improve cleaning

practices due to increased water availability. In direct response to

COVID-19 and other epidemics, piped water to the dwelling also

helps households reduce exposure to diseases spread by interpersonal

transmission through decreased use of public facilities.

2021-2025 key targets

2021-2025 areas of focusDelineate and plan for universal coverage in a number of

countries, particularly working with governments to identify

strategic areas to focus efforts to reach this target using the

district strategic planning approach.

Increase focus on designing water systems to allow for

individual household connections as well as multiple uses to

support livelihoods.

Improve water quality at the household level through

increased emphasis on piped-water systems.

Strengthen procurement policy and supply chains for certified

potable water materials.

Monitor water quality through regular checks incorporated in

the WASH monitoring agenda.
