The WASH in Schools web site comes from the joint School Sanitation and Hygiene Education (SSHE) web site of IRC and UNICEF, which was launched in 1999. This new web site serves as a discussion forum and an information exchange platform for sector professionals working in the field of Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) in Schools. It is a place where people can share messages in a simple way. It is also the home of the WASH in Schools Thematic Group and is linked to the FRESH framework. The WASH in Schools web site is an interactive web site, so your contributions are highly appreciated.
