An overview of Rotary India WinS (WASH in Schools) program in India. Rotary in India is undertaking WASH program in 10000 government schools. We must know that fulfilling every child's right to water, sanitation and hygiene education remains a major challenge in India. Although our Union and State governments have made great strides over the years towards safeguarding the well being of children, there are millions of children in our country who have no access to drinking water, sanitation facilities and hygiene education. The sustainable WinS (WASH in Schools) program launched by Rotary with the support of UNICEF is intended to improve health, foster learning and enable children to participate as agents of change for their siblings, their parents and the community at large. Rotary in India will have a role in making sure that every child receives the benefits of WASH in Schools.
Consultations with the Leadership, CSOs and Community in Greater Kampala Metr...Dr. Joshua Zake
ย
This presentation was delivered during the WATER SECURITY ACTION AND INVESTMENT PLAN (WSAIP) for Greater Kampala Metropolitan Area (GKMA) mission multi-stakeholder workshop held on 5th December 2019 at Golf course Hotel in Kampala.
It provides key highlights of the experiences of UWASNET and the ENR-CSO Network in respect to consultations with the Leadership, CSOs and Community in Greater Kampala Metropolitan Area (GKMA) in the development of the Water Security Action and Investment Plan.
The workshop was conducted within the framework of the WSAIP project implemented by the Ministry of Water and Environment in collaboration with Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA), National Water and Sewerage Corporation (NWSC) and the Uganda Manufacturers Association (UMA) with funding from DFIDโs Cities and Infrastructure for Growth Program and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and through coordination of GIZ under the International Water Stewardship Program (GIZ IWaSP).
The workshop provided opportunity for updating participants on the progress in developing the WSAIP. Participants will have the opportunity to validate the process used and interface with the consultant Industrial Economics Incorporated (IEc) who has supported the development of the plan and the WSAIP Tools i.e. the water security planning tool and project investment model.
The three overarching objectives of the WSAIP are:
(a) To build evidence of baseline and continued trends, the benefits of a water secure future, and the benefits of investment and action
(b) To use the evidence to catalyze actions and investments that systematically reduce water security risks and improve resilience
(c) To empower key stakeholders to understand, prioritize and monitor the changing landscape of water security and environmental threats.
WSAIP is a participatory stakeholder empowerment process delivering a multi-stakeholder owned plan to improve Greater Kampala Metropolitan Areaโs water security, with the commitment of stakeholders to implement that plan. The plan will be comprised of a series of actions and investments options that improve water security in Greater Kampala that cut across water supply and sanitation services, water resources management, solid waste management, and urban and land-use planning to create an integrated approach to understanding and improving water security.
Over the last 10 months the project has implemented several successful activities with support and participation of various stakeholders from the private sector, government and civil society organizations.

Summary: This presentation aims to raise awareness of the importance of monitoring water quality in projects implemented by Rotarians around the world. To start off, I will explain why water supply projects alone may not entirely address the issue of improving access to safe drinking-water, creating the need to monitor water quality. Then, I will briefly discuss a new resource for organisations concerned about poor quality drinking-water in the home, which is a good guide with considerations about what to test for and how. Finally, I will outline some considerations and practices with respect to how to go about monitoring water quality.

Abstract
This study investigated the state of sanitation facilities, and knowledge on sanitation and hygiene practices among pupils at Chongwe Secondary School (CSS) and Mukamambo II Girls Secondary School (MGSS). Reported communicable diseases among pupils which might affect their ability to attend classes regularly and better school performance necessitated the need for this study. Data collection was conducted using questionnaires administered to 121 randomly sampled pupils from the two schools. Stratification of the sample was such that 74 and 47 were randomly sampled from CSS and MGSS, respectively. Data was analysed using thematic analysis, descriptive statistics and chi-square test of association. Results indicated that sanitary utensils such as toilets, hand washing facilities and drinking water points were highly inadequate for the population of students catered. Majority of learners had knowledge of sanitation and hygiene issues experienced at the school, however, some felt that toilets were too dirty and lacked adequate water and that cleanliness of the classrooms and surroundings was unsanitary. The safety and cleanliness of water used by pupils was also a source of concern. Most girls attested to having missed classes during menstruation periods as sanitary pads were not readily available and water was inadequate. Some pupils from CSS cited incidences when a leakage in the sewer line supposedly led to the contents of the sewer pipes finding their way into the water. It was concluded that pupils perceived the sanitation of their schools as of low quality. The lack of pupil satisfaction as regards the provided sanitation facilities could be a factor in pupils adopting unhygienic practices, decreased class attendance and low academic performance. In order for boarding schools in Chongwe District to attract and retain healthy learners, it is recommended that schools need to prioritise sanitation issues and teachers need to educate pupils on good hygiene practices. There is also need for regular inspections of sanitation facilities by the teachers-on-duty, health environment personnel and officers-in-charge of standards in secondary education at Ministry of General Education.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
ย
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Annual Programme Report
2011
2. 1.0 Introduction
The Coalition of NGOs in Water and Sanitation (CONIWAS) is an umbrella Civil Society Organization (CSO) established to contribute to water
resource management and sustainable provision of water and sanitation services and hygiene promotion services in Ghana. Itโs dedicated to ensuring
potable water supply and improved sanitation integrated with hygiene promotion is available in right quantity and right time to citizens of the country,
especially the poor and marginalized groups in society. Formed in 2003, CONWAS has provided and continues to provide space for WASH sector
NGOs to engage themselves as well as the government and other sector organizations on issues affecting the sector. CONIWAS acts as a mouthpiece
for over 50 member constituents where it derives its strength. The Network provides a forum for CSO coordination and involvement in debates and
information exchange to influence policy decisions and strategies affecting the WASH sector. It seeks to initiate, develop and maintain collaborative
mechanisms among CSOs working in Ghana and Africa by enhancing communication on matters relating to WASH. It updates members on
national and international WASH initiatives, policies and strategies and best practices relevant to the Ghanaian scenario.
CONIWAS has the following vision and missions:
Water and Sanitation for All for Development through Collective action
The Mission is:
โWorking in partnership with sector players to influence policies, remove barriers and promote access to potable water, sanitation and improved
hygiene for all especially the poor and vulnerable.โ
CONIWAS works to achieve the following goals:
๏ท Building partnerships with relevant stakeholders in order to increase access to water and sanitation for the poor and vulnerable in urban, peri

3. 2.0 Programs Implemented and Outcomes
Programmes implemented were categorized the main programme domains Governance and Accountability, Research and Advocacy, Partnerships
and Collaboration and Organizational Development.
2.1 Governance and Accountability Programme
Projects and activities implemented focused on creating space for citizens to demand for improved WASH Services in their communities. Two
projects delivered under this domain were Citizenโs Demand for Improved Water Services in Obuasi and Kanda Cluster of Schools Projects in Accra
a) Citizenโs Demand for Improved Water Services in Obuasi
Obuasi is one of the single largest mining communities in Ghana. The town has seen greater expansion in settlement without a correspondent
expansion in utility provision, in this case, water. Most of the suburbs, especially the peripheries, and the slums do not have adequate access to
potable supply. The services are intermittent and flow is irregular. However, no mechanism was established to collect and collate consumersโ
complains and address them. A project was initiated in 2010 where people from the slums and other suburbs engaged the Service Provider, AVRL to
demand for improved services. The engagement was aimed at promoting community participation in urban water service delivery and creating a
platform for community/service provider engagement for improved water supply services. Issues discussed included water quality, irregular supplies
of water, high billing costs and cost of connections. Community Score Card was the main social accountability tool used to facilitate this process. The
results were series of actions to be taken by the provider to enhance service delivery to the communities. This yearโs project was therefore a follow-
up to assess the extent to which the action plan was implemented and whether it resulted in improved water provision to the communities. At the
meeting were the representatives of the suburbs, Ghana Urban Water Limited (GUWL), and Public Utility Regulatory Commission (PURC). At the
end of the meeting, there were indications that the quality of water to households has improved dramatically and this was attributed to regular flushing
of the pipelines. In addition, the main pipeline was replaced with a new one which has bigger diameter. This enhanced flow of water and increased

6. 2.2 Research and Advocacy
This programme domain focused on engaging Sector stakeholders and the Media on pertinent issues affecting the Sector. The projects implemented
were Mole XXII Conference, Media Engagement on the Performance on Aqua Vitans Rand Limited (AVRL) within the context of Management

Analysis
a) Mole XXII Conference
Mole Conference offers the biggest Multi-Stakeholder annual platforms in the
Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) sector in Ghana. The Platform,
named after the venue of the maiden edition, Mole in the Northern Region of
Ghana, is organized by the Coalition of NGOs in Water and Sanitation
(CONIWAS) and brings together sector practitioners from NGOs,
Government, Private Operators, Networks, CBOs, CSOs, etc. to dialogue,
learn and share knowledge/information on specific themes that affect the
sector. This yearโs conference was on the theme โTowards Decentralized
WASH Services Delivery: Challenges and Lessons.โ The four days meeting
had one hundred fifty eight participants representing government, NGOs,
development partners, traditional leaders and the private sector. This took
place from 9th-13th August 2011. The conference scope covered Governance,
Accountability and Aid Effectiveness in the WASH sector; Dealing with long
term financing for small town systems; Oil and Gas and its implications in the
WASH sector; Scaling up Sanitation and Hygiene- The CLTS factor; and,
Innovation/New Initiative in the WASH Sector. The conference came out
with many recommendations including a seventeen point communiquรฉ. See communiquรฉ at www.moleconference.org/downloads

7. b) Policy Dialogues โ Human Rights to WASH Services
On July 28, 2010, the UN General Assembly adopted a historic The Scope of the Right to Water and Sanitation
Resolution 64/292 resolution (General Assembly ) recognizing access to
clean water and sanitation as a human right by a vote of 122 in favor, The Right to Water and Sanitation as stated in Human Rights

c) Sector Monitoring and Media Engagement โ Performance AVRL
CONIWAS strategy has been to engage the vibrant media sector as part of its platforms to make information available to the general public and to
help them make informed decision. CONIWASโ through this process shared its position on the future direction of urban water supply in Ghana, and
particularly, the fate of the Management Contract between Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL) and Aqua Vitens Rand Limited (VRL) as the
contract rolled to an end in June 2011. AVRL under a management contract signed in 2006 had a responsibility of ensuring efficient and effective
delivery of water supply to the urban citizenry. CONIWAS called for a non-renewal of the contract on grounds of non-performance in relation to
agreed performance indicators and targets.
CONIWAS also of the view that the new company, Ghana Urban Water Limited which was put in place to perform the functions of AVRL under
the management contract was not necessary because the staff and management were part of the Ghana Water Company Limited. The GUWL was to
operate as a โSpecial Purpose Vehicleโ for one year by which time the government would have put in place a long-term institutional arrangement for
effective delivery of urban water.

8. d) Sector Monitoring and Media Engagement - WAHS Sector Budget Analysis
As a follow up to government on its commitment to the SWA, CONIWAS conducted an assessment which concluded that government was indeed
meeting about 45% of its commitments to the SWA. The assessment further indicated that the WASH Sector budget constituted about 3% of the
total budget for 2011 fiscal year and donors are contribution a little over 90% to the WASH Sector budget. CONIWAS called to government to put
into action, its commitments. (Reference to Public agenda, 28th April, 2011 and 12 May 2011, also on http://www.washghana.net/page/1101).
As a follow-up to the above call, CONIWAS has submitted a memorandum to the Ministry of Finance to advocate for an increase in WASH
allocation in the 2012 budget. CONIWAS together with Sector stakeholders has initiated a process of undertaking a comprehensive assessment of
the SWA Compact to determine the extent to which the Government and Development Partners are meeting the Commitment in the Compact. The
result is also expected to help the country develop its proposal and commitment toward the 2012 HLM in April.

e) World Water Day (White Balloon Day)
CONIWAS used the occasion of World Water to draw attention of the government and WASH Sector stakeholders about the WASH situations in
public Basic Schools in the Country. The event was celebrated in two locations โ Agona Nkwanta, near Takoradi and Teshie Cluster of Schools.
CONIWAS in collaboration with GLONEHDO organized a White Balloon Day to mark World Water Day for selected schools from Teshie-
White Balloons filled with air were distributed to the kids. The size of each balloon signifies the minimum quantum of water required by each pupil
to ensure effective hygiene delivery in the schools. About three thousand kids participated in this programme.

9. 2.3. Partnerships and Collaboration
Partnering sector agencies, development partners, international organisations, platforms and networks has been one of the programme strategies and
domain for CONIWAS. During the period under review CONIWAS enhanced its partnership and collaboration with state institutions as the
Environmental Health and Sanitation Directorate/Ministries of Local Government and Rural Development (EHSD/MLGRD), Water
Directorate/Ministry of Water Resource Works and Housing (WD/MWRWH), the Community Water and Sanitation Agency (CWSA) and the
Water Resources Commission (WRC). CONIWAS participated in a number of activities implemented by these institutions. CONIWAS is
represented by its members on the Boards of WRC and CWSA and on the National Environmental Sanitation Policy Council (NESPoC)
CONIWAS has good working relations with WASH Sector Development Partners (DPs) and International NGOs and has participated in their
programmes and projects. The DPs have provided both financial and technical support to projects implemented by CONIWAS. DANIDA,
UNICEF, European Union and CIDA have been a long standing partner of CONIWAS, providing support for both operations and administrations
and projects like Mole Conference. CONIWAS also partners International NGOs like WaterAid in Ghana, Relief International, World Vision,
KASA/CARE Ghana, International Budget Partnership (IBP), SEND Ghana, to mention just a few. CONIWAS work at the national level on the
Water and Sanitation Sector Working Group, National Technical Working Group on Sanitation and Hand Washing among others.
At the international level CONIWAS is still a member of ANEW and participates in ANEW programmes and meetings. CONIWAS also partners
Fresh Water Network, End Water Poverty, Center for Housing Rights and Eviction (COHRE).
As part of its advocacy agenda CONIWAS seeks to influence and learn from platforms. During the period under review CONIWAS worked with
Natural Resource and Environment Governance (NREG), Oil and Gas Platform, Mining, Fisheries and Aid Effectiveness Platforms.
2.4 Direct WASH Services Delivery
This programme domain involves collection and coordination of reports from CONIWAS members with respect to making WASH services
available to people, especially the poor and marginalised. This mainly considers number of facilities constructed including CLTS, hygiene promotion
sessions conducted and the number reached with the service provision. In table 1 below are reports from some CONIWAS Members

2.4 Organisation Development
This programme domains capture information on organisation capacity development including activities aimed strengthening and sustaining the
Secretariat and Membership, training for member organisation, management of the secretariat, coordination of membership programmes and
activities
a) Training - Harmonizing Tools for Community Engagement in Budget Analysis and Public Expenditure Tracking
To ensure that CONIWAS continues to work towards achieving its objectives, and effectively monitor the sector, CONIWAS organized training for
its members. The focus of the training was to harmonize tools used for citizenโs engagements so as to improve on these exercises.
b) Training - Budget Analysis and Public Expenditure Tracking
As part of an effort to decentralize budget analysis and public expenditure tracking to members at Regional and District levels, a training programme
was implemented by selected members who were working public sector budgets at the district level. Members received training budget analysis and
public expenditure tracking. The training was implemented in conjunction with SEND Ghana and was supported by the World Bank
c) Exchange Programme
A staff at the Secretariat went on an Exchange Programme with NETWAS, an equivalent of CONIWAS in Uganda. This programme was under the
auspices of IRC of Netherlands and it is aimed at training African Young Professional in WASH-related issues. A Staff of NETWAS is also with the
Secretariat. The programme which is for 10 months is expected to end in August 2012.
d) Strategic Planning Process
CONIWAS in 2011 started the process of reviewing its Strategic Plan. This end result is expected in first quarter of 2012. The Strategic Plan will
provide a frame of reference for CONIWASโ programmes and projects
e) Secretariat Management
The Secretariat has not seen significant change in its activities and programmes. However, it witnessed increased in workload with the absence of the
Programme Officer who was an Exchange Programme in Uganda. The Secretariat occasionally received staff support from member organisation staff
3.0 Programme and Operation Financing
10
11. Two major financing arrangements were required by the Secretariat โ financing operations and administration of the Secretariat and Programmes of
CONIWAS.
a) Operations and Administration Financing
This was mainly required to manage and run day-to-day operations and administration of the Secretariat and to service members. It included staff
costs, vehicle running and maintenance, utilities, including communication and rent. Financing these expenses was expected to come from Membersโ
contribution/dues. In the past substantial support came from DANIDA but this came to end in 2010, when DANIDA ended its investments and
support to WASH Sector in Ghana, including support to CONIWAS. The last of quarter of the year presented very challenging times as the
Secretariat found it difficult to meet is administrative and operation costs. This was compounded by the fact that some of the financiers of the Mole
XXII Conference could meet their commitments. CONIWAS was therefore compelled to make up the differences from its own coffers. Another
challenge is that Membership dues/contributions about 20% of the Secretariat Expenses and therefore inadequate.
b) Programme/Project Financing
Programme/Project financing relates specifically direct funding of projects and these, during 2011 came from donors. Consequently, all projects
implemented in the year under review had some level of Funding. Most of the Advocacy, Media Engagement, Governance and Transparency
Projects were funded under the GTF programme with WaterAid in Ghana. WaterAid in Ghana and European Union supported the review of the
Strategic Plan. CIDA, DANIDA, WaterAid in Ghana, UNICEF, GWCL/CWSA/WD, Polytank, and many others supported the implementation of
the Mole XXII Conference. Training programmes were supported by International Budget Partnership and the World Bank.
Whilst project funding helped CONIWAS to implement its programmes and projects, it was limited in terms of support to the Secretariat. With the
exception of WaterAid in Ghana who supported about a staff cost and about 10% of the administrative costs, none of the funders supported the
running of the Secretariat.
4.0 Financial Reporting (Audit Report)
5.0 Challenges
Two major challenges confronted the Coalition during the period under review. As stated above, financing operations and administration presented a
serious challenge to the Secretariat and affected its performance and responses to the needs of members and other Sector Stakeholders. This resulted
in limited interactions with Secretariat including the Zonal Coordinators with the Membership. The Secretariat was unable to collect, collate and
coordinate the activities of the Members at all levels and this was also as a results of funding limitations.
