Water and Sanitation Guidelines for Global Grant Funding

Abstract: Rotary is dedicated to six areas of focus to build international relationships, improve lives, and create a better world. Through global grants, awarded by The Rotary Foundation, clubs and districts participate in strategically focused, high-impact activities in these areas. All global grant activities are required to align with the goals of an area of focus. For water and sanitation, the goals are: 1. Provide equitable community access to safe water, improved sanitation, and hygiene 2. Strengthen the ability of communities to develop, fund, and maintain sustainable water and sanitation systems 3. Support programs that enhance communities’ awareness of the benefits of safe water, improved sanitation, and hygiene 4. Support studies for career-minded professionals related to water and sanitation
