Aligned in their vision and with clear short-term goals, WASH Web and openwashdata have formed a strategic partnership to facilitate improvements in WASH data access and recognition. openwashdata provides greater access to WASH information by publishing data to be analyzed by researchers, integrated into course materials by university lecturers, or used in business cases by the non-academic sector.
Until now, the majority of data and information in the water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) sector, such as reports, datasets, and analyses, remain largely in the hands of experts. Even information that is available, is often in formats that are not usable for further research. To target this need, both WASH Web and openwashdata are on a mission to improve the discoverability, representability and usefulness of WASH data.
WASH Web is a participatory, bottom-up initiative made up of four main working groups: Social Justice, Using Data Better, Systems Thinking, and Accountability: 4Ws. Through our participatory approach, we hope to engage people from a variety of sectors in leading and contributing to these working groups.
