Increasing impact
Developing a new theory of change for the Global Sanitation Fund
To make change happen, you need to know how. The Global Sanitation Fund now has a Theory of Change and a monitoring framework to track its impact
We were contracted by the Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council (WSSCC) to help develop the Global Sanitation Fund’s theory of change and conceptual framework, as well as its new results and monitoring framework.
The Global Sanitation Fund (GSF) has been one of the key players in transforming the sanitation sector. Programmes supported by the GSF have contributed greatly to stopping open defecation. During its next phase, GSF needs to address the challenges of sustainability, scalability and equity, while at the same time strengthening its results and monitoring framework.
Several independent evaluations and studies have shown that GSF needs to strengthen its systems, procedures and approaches, and in particular to:
- revise the GSF Results Framework so that it uses adequate indicators to capture what is actually taking place as the GSF’s theory of change is put into action;
- include equality and non-discrimination, as this is a core principle of WSSCC and the GSF;
- address supply side approaches to enhance sustainability of behaviour change along with sanitation marketing.
GSF’s new theory of change and conceptual framework, and its new results and monitoring framework are due to be presented for global discussion before the end of 2017.
