What is it about?
The first function of the WASH Coordination platform is to “support service delivery”, by setting up a platform allowing partners to 1) deliver services to the beneficiaries according to a Humanitarian Response Plan and the WASH sector/cluster strategic priorities; and 2) avoid duplication. Depending on the context, the coordination platform will have to be set up or strengthened. In both cases, the WASH sector/cluster coordinator (WCC) works hand in hand with the Information Management Officer (IMO) to achieve all coordination requirements set up by the IASC, OCHA, GWC and relevant governmental authorities.
What are the objectives?
Ensures delivery of WASH services to the affected population is driven by the Humanitarian Response Plan, and that use of available resources is maximized
