The USAID Indonesia Urban
Water, Sanitation and Hygiene 'Penyehatan Lingkungan Untuk Semua' (IUWASH PLUS)
program is a five-year initiative designed to assist the Government of
Indonesia in increasing access to water supply and sanitation services as well as improving
key hygiene behaviors among urban poor and vulnerable populations.
Implemented by DAI Global LLC, IUWASH
PLUS works with governmental agencies, the private sector, NGOs, communities
and others to achieve the following "high level" results:
- An increase of one million people in urban areas with access to improved water supply of which at least 500,000 are from the poorest 40% of the population; and
- An increase of 500,000 people in urban areas with access to an improved sanitation facility and all of whom are from the poorest 40% of the population.
To ensure that improvements in access to WASH services are
sustained, IUWASH PLUS is guided by a development hypothesis that focuses on
strengthening service delivery systems so they can more effectively reach the
poorest and most vulnerable segments of the population. In order to achieve this
at scale, IUWASH PLUS undertakes activities through four interrelated
components, including: 1) Improving household WASH services; 2) Strengthening
city WASH institutional performance; 3) Strengthening the WASH financing
environment; and 4) Advancing national WASH advocacy, coordination and
communication.
