Abstract:
The primary goal of the Capacity Building of Local/National WASH NGOs/CBOs in Africa (Cap-WASH) Program is to support capacity building (CB) and knowledge management (KM) for national and local African WASH NGOs/CBOs through: (1) the assessment of the existing networks engaged in CB and KM by the existing sector capacities, (2) by developing an adaptable modular WASH training tool, and (3) by supporting the participation of NGO/CBO members to a Triple-S Forum. The project outcomes required to achieve this goal are captured in the following three program objectives. Objective 1: Conduct a review (desk review and survey) of existing networks for African WASH NGOs/CBOs at the regional or sub-regional level, as well as resources/platforms created to support them through capacity building and knowledge management services. Objective 2: In consultation with the implementers of existing KM/CB efforts as well as other major institutions in the international WASH sector (e.g., WaterAid, UNICEF, World Bank/WSP, WSSCC, and others), identify an appropriate niche for USAID support to African NGO/CBO capacity building and/or knowledge management. Objective 3: Implement at least one cost-effective intervention to support African WASH NGOs/CBOs and increase their ability to design and implement sustainable WASH service programs.
