Our Partners In Action: Agenda For Change

Agenda for Change is a collaboration among organizations working to achieve sustainable delivery of water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services for all people by 2023, as set out in the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goal 6. Agenda for Change members work closely with governments and others in the sector to strengthen WASH systems. They do so by addressing the factors that comprise these systems, such as service delivery, financing, regulations, and monitoring; increasing the capacity of those sustaining the system, including governmental agencies, private companies, and civil society organizations; and promoting a collaborative network of actors and relationships.

Agenda for Change’s new strategy aims to solidify and operationalize its transition to being a fully country-led global collective. From 2023 through 2026, Agenda for Change will focus on three complementary priorities:

  1. Ensure country collaborations are effective, efficient, and strong

  2. Influence others to adopt a collective-action approach to strengthening systems

  3. Build evidence and knowledge for sharing knowledge with member, funders, and other stakeholders

To achieve these goals, Agenda for Change will expand its global footprint through strategic partnerships and rollout of a new membership structure.
