Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) Conference 2011 in Brisbane, Australia

The WASH Conference 2011 will take place in Brisbane, Australia from 16-20th May 2011. It is coordinated by the Water and Sanitation (WASH) Reference Group in conjunction with AusAID. The WASH Conference 2011 is furthermore managed by International WaterCentre and International WaterForum.

The WASH Conference and training program will focus primarily, but not exclusively, on WASH services provision in developing countries including; water supply systems (in villages, towns and cities); household toilets and sanitation facilities in public and shared areas (such as schools, clinics and markets); and hygiene promotion from community-based to campaign approaches.

The registration for the WASH Conference is opening soon.

Specific themes that will be addressed are: (1) Functional and environmental sustainability, (2) Behaviour change and social sustainability, (3) Institutional sustainability, and (4) Financial sustainability.
These four themes are interlinked, and together are responsible for ‘sustainable’ WASH service delivery that will continue to provide better health and other benefits well into the future for the people served.
