Description:
This toolkit provides technical instruments to tackle some of the most significant issues affecting women in the water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) sector in Palestine. It outlines the findings of a series of workshops in Ramallah and in Gaza City, organized by UN Women in 2015 to unpack cluster-specific issues related to priority gender needs and responses and identify ways to address challenges for gender sensitive humanitarian responses. The WASH cluster participants identified a number of priorities and action points, including the need for capacity building and the development of an instrument for WASH partners to enable them to better identify and address gender specific needs. In light of these recommendations, GVC, with its expertise in Gender and WASH, and the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation (AICS) – Jerusalem Office – created this toolkit in coordination and with the support of UN Women and the Palestinian Water Authority (PWA).
