It is responsible to monitor both response inputs (ensuring verifying that they are adequate) and response outputs (ensuring a maximal response quality), against targets defined by in the WASH Operational Response Plan and Strategic Operational Framework (SOF).
The responsibility responsibilities of the WASH coordination platform regarding monitoring are summarized as follows, in link with links to relevant subsections sections of the this chapter as well as other CTK section
