Year of publication: 2005

A partnership of 7 organisations in Kenya has completed a successful 9-month pilot project to enhance the state of sanitation and hygiene for Kenya’s schoolchildren through improved access and use of information. The pilot has demonstrated that partnership is a practical approach to resource mobilisation and project implementation.

Under the auspices of the Resource Centre Development (RCD) initiative of the IRC Water and Sanitation International Centre (Netherlands), the 7 core partners rallied around a common theme of School Sanitation and Hygiene Education (SSHE). This paper discusses some of the partnership dynamics observed during the piloting process as well as the pilot project itself.
