Description
<p><strong>Ideas That Work</strong> demonstrates how water, sanitation and personal hygiene (WASH) needs of women survivors of disaster can be addressed to minimise risk to violence that they may otherwise face.</p>
<p>It provides a compilation of practical experiences that have attempted to reduce risk to violence against women (VAW) in the provision of WASH facilities in the early response phase of an emergency.</p>
<p><strong>Ideas That Work</strong> has been developed for use both by WASH engineers as well as emergency personnel dealing with social processes for a more holistic approach to WASH programmes and addresses twin components: delivery of efficient engineering solutions and effective processes for social renegotiation.</p>
<p>The result is WASH infrastructure that addresses women’s needs in a manner that is dignified and promotes prevention of violence.</p>
