About the project

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) indicates a commitment to universal access. In this regard, it is essential to closely examine the barriers that still hinder or halt access to basic services in the sanitation sector. The ‘Intersectionality-Informed Framework for Implementation of Effective Gender Integration in WSH: Andhra Pradesh’, supported by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF), explores these issues in the context of three cities: Anantapur, Kovvur and Narsapur. The project aims to empower communities, strengthen agencies, and advance policies, regulations, and processes for increased accessibility to sanitation services.The project consortium is engaged in a collaborative effort to develop an implementable framework. This framework is informed by lessons and experiences from the ground and complemented by secondary research.
