IRC WASH, together with Water for People and Water for Good hosted the All Systems Connect 2023 symposium in The Hague.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MetaMeta \/ SMART Centre Group, together with Tiyeni and IWMI contributed through a session titled: ‘Scaling self-supply in Africa’. This session evaluated lessons learnt, among others from an IRC evaluation, about supported self-supply as an successful scaling approach to reach SDG6.1 in rural Africa at a cost that is 2-6 times lower than conventional WASH delivery models and simultaneously contributes to SDGs for poverty, food security, gender and climate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was a good turn-out and an interactive discussion, following the presentations by Barbara van Koppen (IWMI), Colin Andrews (Tiyeni) and Henk Holtslag (MetaMeta \/ SMART Centre Group). Lemessa Mekonte of IRC moderated the session together with Aline Saraiva of RWSN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
