Water, sanitation, and waste management assets and services are critical to healthy cities. And yet, in many cases, the planning for WASH is not integrated into other urban planning functions leading to fragmented service delivery, suboptimal budgeting, poor monitoring of services, and adverse health and human outcomes for urban citizens.
In this episode, we speak to Neelima Thota from Sah-Krta Foundation and Senior Advisor to several WASH funders and Srikanth Viswanathan from Janaaagraha Centre for Citizenship and Democracy who share their perspectives on the history of planning for urban WASH through the years, top-down and bottom-up approaches to project planning, role of different elements such as technology, citizen engagement, budgeting. They also discuss success stories in planning for WASH, approaches to WASH planning in large and small cities, emerging trends and climate change considerations in planning.
