What is it about?

Capacity development is a key function of the coordination platform. Once WASH needs have been identified, a capacity mapping can be done to evaluate if the WASH sector is able to answer to the identified needs. Based on the finding, capacity development can be done to fill observed gaps.

Information on sector capacity is required during strategic planning, to estimate cluster caseload and targets, and to include capacity building targets in the WASH response strategy. But capacity mapping and development are usually considered as preparedness activities, because they require time and resources usually not available during emergency phase.

What are the objectives?

  • Identify gaps and strengthen WASH sector capacity to improve emergency response and coordination
