The Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council (WSSCC) will cease to exist as of 31 December 2020, when the organization will become the Sanitation and Hygiene Fund (SHF).

The Fund will have a new structure and operating model. It is an investment mechanism with an operating model that has been designed to deliver sustainable impact at scale. The Sanitation and Hygiene Fund has four strategic objectives:

  1. To scale up household sanitation and hygiene services
  2. To address gaps in menstrual health and hygiene while promoting the empowerment of women and girls
  3. To increase sustainable water, sanitation, hygiene, and menstrual health and hygiene services in schools and health care facilities; and
  4. To support innovation towards safely managed sanitation, hygiene and menstrual health and hygiene

 

Visit the Sanitation and Hygiene Fund website for more information.

The Sanitation and Hygiene Fund will be launched during an online event on 17 November at 4 p.m. CET.  Attend the launch on www.SHFund.org. No registration is required.
