• National WASH Cluster Coordinator (WCC) should have a direct reporting line to the UNICEF representative Country Representative and also report to the OCHA’s inter-cluster coordinator, who relay the information to the HC/HCT
• Subnational WCC reports to the local UNICEF representative / Chief of Field Office and to the national WCC
• The relation with national government varies from one country to another. In some cases, a representative from the government at the WASH Cluster is nominated, from Water Resource, Health or Public Services’ Ministry. Depending on its capacity, national government will oversee the whole coordination, participate in the cluster decision making process, or will just be an observer
• Partners/members of the GWC are accountable to the WASH Cluster as per their commitments made at global level. Some other partners are just observers (MSF, ICRC)
• WASH partners are encouraged to take on a shared coordination leadership role, by fulfilling a cluster co-facilitator role at national level, or cluster coordination role at subnational level. This can be done on a voluntary basis, or by dedicated staff funded by a donor

Set up coordination platform's work plan

It should include general IM tasks , as well as main subnational platform products, although IMO and subnational platforms should have their own more detailed frameworks and work plans. The work plan must integrate all the inputs from the WASH coordination platform to the local HPC product (HRP, HNO etc.). Template and example of work plans are proposed in this page.
