One of the core functions of the
WASH Coordinationcoordination platform is to “inform
theHC/HCT’s strategic
decision-making”decisions”, by providing them a clear analysis and prioritization of WASH humanitarian needs.
Even in the initial stage of an emergency, a large amount of secondary data is usually available, that can be collected and analysed by WCC. The WASH coordination platform can also be directly coordinating primary data collection, for instance after an L3 sudden onset emergency. In a more stabilized context or protracted emergencies, WCC must set up a system to get regular access to harmonized assessment data from partners covering all affected area and targeted groups, called a WASH Assessment Framework. It may be relevant to train partners on assessment framework or data collection methodologies.What are the objectives

To achieve this function, the coordination platform should:
- Set up the WASH sector assessment and analysis strategy in line with the intersectoral needs assessment process led by OCHA, to define the information needs, make necessary arrangements to gather required data and plan the type and level of relevant analysis
- Develop core indicators to harmonize the way WASH assessment data is collected and make the link with the response monitoring system
- Implement a secondary data review (SDR) to collate and consolidate data collected by actors such as national governments, development organizations or other clusters.
- Coordinate or lead WASH primary data collection and analyses to address gaps identified by the SDR through multi-sectorial or WASH-specific assessments, implemented by assessment-specialized organizations or WASH partners
- Contribute to the inter-sectorial needs analysis: The WASH coordination platform, along with the other sectors, should analyze assessment data to identify and prioritize the people in need of WASH support.
What is the objective
- Ensure the multisector humanitarian response is built on solid WASH evidences
