Supporting the development of national digital WASH strategies is a crucial component of UNICEF's approach to advancing digital solutions in the WASH sector. In this policy brief, we outline the need to unlock national WASH data ecosystems in order to rapidly accelerate WASH data management and improve access to water. This proposed solution allows nations to bring together disparate data systems and processes, gain insights into previously data-sparse rural communities, and improve WASH access and water security for the entire region, bringing us one step closer to achieving SDG 6.
