− | Sustainability | + | Sustainability is about whether or not WASH services and good hygiene practices continue to work over time. No time limit is set on those continued services and accompanying behaviour changes. In other words, sustainability is about permanent beneficial change in WASH services and hygiene practices. <ref>Richard C Carter, Erik Harvey, Vincent Casey (WaterAid, UK), [http://www.ircwash.org/resources/user-financing-rural-handpump-water-services-paper-presented-irc-symposium-%E2%80%98-pumps-pipes User financing of rural handpump water services].

+ | Sustainability approaches for the WASH sector began in response to recurring project problems over time, which wasted billions of US dollars invested and resulted in failures such as pump breakdowns or sanitation systems overflowing as toxic pollution into the surrounding environment. With projects abandoned, communities were left, lacking proper fresh water access or hygienic sanitation solutions. This led to the realisation that sustainable service delivery required a sector-wide process of change.<ref>Schouten, T and Moriarty, P. , 2013.

Sustainability is about whether or not WASH services and good hygiene practices continue to work over time. No time limit is set on those continued services and accompanying behaviour changes. In other words, sustainability is about permanent beneficial change in WASH services and hygiene practices. 1
Several sustainability frameworks show how to move from failing systems to reliable and lasting water and sanitation services.
History
Sustainability approaches for the WASH sector began in response to recurring project problems over time, which wasted billions of US dollars invested and resulted in failures such as pump breakdowns or sanitation systems overflowing as toxic pollution into the surrounding environment. With projects abandoned, communities were left, lacking proper fresh water access or hygienic sanitation solutions. This led to the realisation that sustainable service delivery required a sector-wide process of change.2
F.I.E.T.S Model
This portal uses the basic structure of the five sustainability elements of FIETS, as developed by the Dutch WASH Alliance, to categorise many different frameworks, approaches and tools of sustainable WASH methods:
- Financial: continuity of WASH products and services through local financing (free from foreign funds)
- Institutional: sustained and functional local WASH systems with capable institutions, policies and procedures
- Environmental: sustainable management of water and waste flows that is considerate of the natural environment
- Technical: operation & maintenance of hardware, by local people, preserves not depletes (natural) resources
- Social sustainability: demand-driven, inclusive (equity), gender equal, culturally sensitive and needs-based approach to WASH
Field experiences
The following projects are currently utilizing sustainability methods.
