Transcription

1 ENGLISH (EN) WATER AND SANITATION GUIDELINES FOR GLOBAL GRANT FUNDING Rtary is dedicated t six areas f fcus t build internatinal relatinships, imprve lives, and create a better wrld. Thrugh glbal grants, awarded by The Rtary Fundatin, clubs and districts participate in strategically fcused, high-impact activities in these areas. All glbal grant activities are required t align with the gals f an area f fcus. Fr water and sanitatin, the gals are: 1. Prvide equitable cmmunity access t safe water, imprved sanitatin, and hygiene 2. Strengthen the ability f cmmunities t develp, fund, and maintain sustainable water and sanitatin systems 3. Supprt prgrams that enhance cmmunities awareness f the benefits f safe water, imprved sanitatin, and hygiene 4. Supprt studies fr career-minded prfessinals related t water and sanitatin Use this dcument as a guide when applying fr a glbal grant. Yu ll learn hw t make yur prjects sustainable, what infrmatin is required fr specific prject types, and where t find additinal resurces. A. Elements f Sustainability Sustainability means different things t different rganizatins. Fr Rtary, sustainability means prviding lngterm slutins t cmmunity needs that the beneficiaries can maintain after grant funding ends. Pay careful attentin t the fllwing items t ensure yur prject s lng-term sustainability and increase the likelihd f being apprved fr glbal grant funding. 1. COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT Cmmunity assessments identify where supprt is mst needed, and the rle Rtarians can play in making a difference. Prject spnsrs (ften with a cperating rganizatin) need t cnduct a cmmunity assessment befre submitting their applicatin. An assessment can reveal a cmmunity s strengths and weaknesses and help yu wrk n slutins. If an assessment has already been dne, use the relevant data t design yur prject. Use the cmmunity assessment t: Gather perspectives frm a brad crss-sectin f the cmmunity, including wmen, yung peple, and prfessinals Allw cmmunity members t identify the needs they perceive as mst critical Ask cmmunity participants hw they can cntribute t the prpsed prject Water and Sanitatin Guidelines fr Glbal Grant Funding (July 2018) 1

2 Wrk with cmmunity members t identify lng-term gals and expected prject utcmes The cmmunity assessment results need t be incrprated int the grant. The results shuld describe: Hw the cmmunity s resurces will be used t implement prject activities Hw the prject will meet the needs identified by the cmmunity The lng-term gals r prject utcmes and hw they will be met (fr example, thrugh training and public awareness campaigns) Hw the cmmunity will sustain the prject after the grant has ended Cmmunity assessments fr water and sanitatin prjects shuld include: Wh cnducted the assessment and the methdlgy used A list f stakehlders and hw they were invlved r participated in the assessment Results that illustrate the perceived needs f the cmmunity, schl, and clinic. Include perceptins, behavirs, and assets that can be used t identify and implement slutins. Pre-existing water and sanitatin infrastructure in the cmmunity Pre-existing water, sanitatin, and hygiene training, hygiene educatin, public campaigns, r behavir change cmmunicatin Health behavirs the cmmunity wuld like t see changed Management and gvernance systems that exist and whether they re functinal 2. MATERIALS AND TECHNOLOGY A cmmunity assessment can help cmmunities chse the crrect technlgy based n an understanding f the technical, financial, and managerial implicatins f their chice. It als mtivates cmmunity members t participate in planning, cnstructing, perating, and maintaining the technlgy and materials, and it encurages their acceptance and implementatin fr managing the services. Purchase equipment and new technlgy frm lcal surces, when pssible, and make sure replacement parts are readily available t cmmunities and service prviders. Yur grant applicatin shuld: Describe all infrastructure and technlgy that will be built and implemented with the supprt f the glbal grant Explain why the technlgy was chsen ver ther ptins; include nt nly its field efficacy, but als its fit in the scial and ecnmic envirnment Describe training plans fr increasing technical skills and knwledge within the cmmunity, specifically: Wh will cnduct the training Wh will receive the training What skills and knwledge participants will learn What netwrks r individuals cmmunity technicians can cnsult fr advanced Water and Sanitatin Guidelines fr Glbal Grant Funding (July 2018) 2
