This project aims to document, map and analyse recent WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene) infrastructure projects in the Solomon Islands. By assessing these initiatives, we seek to compare their effectiveness, impact and sustainability. The insights gained from this research will help identify best practices, highlight challenges, and inform strategies for improving future WASH interventions. Ultimately, this study will contribute to building a stronger foundation for evidence-based decision-making and the development of more efficient and impactful WASH programs in the Solomon Islands.
