Project: SWP Benchmarking and Roadmap 2021

Funded by the Osprey Foundation and in partnership with the Agenda for Change, this project aimed to develop a source water protection (SWP) programming benchmark; to develop a methodology for SWP at the country program (CP) scale; and to share results and learnings with Agenda for Change members and others. Project findings are for policy makers, conservation organizations, Water Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) Non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and anyone else interested in integrating SWP programming into their efforts.
