GWL is a global initiative that aims to support emerging countries, including CAR to improve their, Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene services and strengthen climate resilience while bridging the gap between IWRM and WASH.
The focus of the program is to implement inclusive, climate resilient water policies and strategies in low and middle-income countries, of which Uganda is among. It is being implemented through a strategic collaboration between GWP, UNICEF, SWA, JMP and WHO
Building robust and innovative financing and funding mechanisms for water security through an IWRM approach will enable sustainable and more resilient management of our precious water resources. More financing needs to be made available for IWRM approaches and implementation from a variety of sources, including the public and private sectors. How can countries better finance their water resources management?
