2024 Global WASH Cluster Question Bank 

The bank has two main components:

  • An Excel file with the list of indicators, sub-indicators, questions, reply options for both household-level and key informant (KI) community-level questionnaires. It also includes other important information, such as constraints to questions, as well as instructions for the enumerators, to facilitate the design of data collection tools.
  • A Word document, which allows more space to contextualize the bank and provide guidance and instruction on the most important indicators, as well as links to additional resources

WASH data collected by partners or other actors (such as other clusters, DTM, REACH, etc.) should be as harmonized as possible. To foster harmonization, the coordination platform needs to set up core indicators, i.e. a list of standard WASH indicators and questions that WASH partners and other actors will integrate into their respective data collection tools.  Without core indicators, actors would collect data that cannot be compared, resulting in limited coverage, duplication of efforts and a waste of resources.

...

The GWC has supported different countries in developing their core indicators (see xxx in 2019 Global WASH Cluster Question Bank in the Key guidance and tools on top of this page, and some examples developed at national level from the Field example section). The table below shows an example of commonly used indicators:

Tip

Tip: Core indicators should be harmonized with the strategic indicators of included in the response monitoring framework monitoring plan of the WASH Operational Response Plan: by doing so, it will be possible to triangulate between assessment and response monitoring data.
