Help rural Nepalese with access to clean water

The funds received through GlobalGiving platform have been utilized together with the funding from other funding partner. 

In 2023-24, NEWAH implemented 57 water supply, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) projects using 121 water sources (106 springs, 10 streams, and 5 infiltration wells). NEWAH implemented sanitation and hygiene activities through continuation of the total sanitation approach to encourage sustainable behavior change in hygiene and sanitation. This involved monitoring and educating the community on hygiene and sanitation through tole education, capacity building of volunteers, child health groups, and school WASH committees. NEWAH also facilitated the construction of hygiene and sanitation facilities like drying racks, washing slabs, and hand washing stations.

NEWAH also facilitated the construction of hygiene and sanitation facilities like drying racks, washing  slabs, and hand washing stations. The communities are oriented to keep water and soap at hand washing  stations to ensure proper hand washing practices.

Information Education Communication (IEC) materials  were distributed to raise awareness on hygiene and sanitation. NEWAH aims to provide safe water to users  and promote household-level treatment systems at the point of use to prevent contamination. The WASH  related days were celebrated for the awareness and promotion of hygiene and sanitation behavior. Various  awareness programs and training programs were organized to mark Menstrual Hygiene Day in all the project  districts.
