Mapping the evidence on WASH promotion in communities, schools and health facilities

To help achieve universal targets set by the Sustainable Development Goals and reach the most disadvantaged populations, we need access to high-quality evidence on what works in WASH promotion in different contexts and for different populations. 3ie has just released its latest WASH evidence gap map showing us where we have good evidence to make improvements and where we do not. The map focuses on evidence on promotional approaches in households, schools, health facilities and communities in low- and middle-income countries. Our latest update adds 234 additional studies from low- and middle-income countries.

The evidence map facilitates access to the best available evidence on the effectiveness of water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) promotion for households, communities, school and health facilities in low- and middle-income countries. It also highlights where there are gaps in the evidence base. The map includes systematic reviews and impact evaluations. The 2018 update is based on a comprehensive search for published and unpublished studies and is current up to April 2018. The present map updates the searches for the 3ie map published in 2014, and also updates the scope to incorporate WASH promotional mechanisms and technologies, as well as to include behavioural outcomes systematically and WASH in health facilities. The Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council (WSSCC) provided funding for the 2018 update. The 2014 map was funded by the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) with technical support from the World Bank's Independent Evaluation Group.
