#EPICFAILS IN WASH PROJECTS: LEARNING FROM OUR

BEAUTIFUL MISTAKES

ROOM: Y KUAA – MAIN LANGUAGE: SP-EN-FR

Moderator: Jennifer Piccin, Project Manager; and Priya John, Country

Manager – One Drop

Despite our best intentions, and for various reasons, few of our projects go exactly as planned. If we fail to recognize the learning potential of these failures, we are doomed to repeat the same mistakes. Instead of ignoring them—or worse, glossing over them—why not be bold and share them

Page 4: Program - One Drop Foundation · 10.45 – 11.00 AM COFFEE BREAK ROOM: NICARAGUA RURAL (GARDEN) 11.00 AM – 1.00 PM STATE OF PROGRESS OF SDG 6 AND THE ROOM: GUANAJUATO – MAIN LANGUAGE:

Despite achieving a global recognition that Indigenous Peoples have a unique position in the cultural heritage of humankind, they continue to “face systemic discrimination and exclusion from political and economic power and they continue to be over-represented amongst the poorest, the illiterate, and the destitute” (UNDESA, 2009). Some conventions have attempted to frame the relationship between national entities, private sectors, philanthropic communities and Indigenous Peoples. However, in the WASH sector, there is no specific framework to guide our actions and collaborations. This session will address the main challenges/specificities/opportunities related to working with indigenous communities in our sector and within the context of the SABC approach. We will discuss successes, failures and lessons learned from experiences in India, Latin America and Nunavik (Northern Quebec), and identify recommendations and best practices that can orient our programming going forward.

with others so that we may learn not only from our own experiences, but from those of our colleagues? This session offers a safe space for personal reflection on your own experience in the WASH sector (as an individual and as an organization), as well as an opportunity to share experiences in order to delve deeper into the lessons that we can draw from different lived examples. Finally, the session will allow us to think about how we could better document and share these learning experiences amongst collaborators. It is not always easy to voice your concerns or admit mistakes, so we use a methodology that allows for these experiences to be shared anonymously. Don’t be shy—come join us for what is sure to be a fun and eye-opening session. Takeaways will include the commonalities between the #EpicFails and what these signal about the WASH sector; the fora available to share #EpicFails and how to create safe spaces for honest reflection; and the tools we already have (or can create) to help integrate these lessons into our project design/implementation processes.

3.15 – 3.45 PM COFFEE BREAK ROOM: NICARAGUA RURAL

3.45 – 5.30 PM HOW DO WE TURN WATER INTO ROOM: GUANAJUATO – MAIN LANGUAGE: SP-EN-FR ACTION, TOGETHER?

Facilitators: Gabrielle Goodfellow, Director, Projects and Partnerships; Jennifer Piccin, Project Manager; and Virginie Bounouane, Senior Analyst, Financial Compliance – One Drop.

As donors, technical experts and implementing agencies, we all have the same long-term goal: to improve the living conditions of the communities we work with. However, each organization has its own ways of working, communicating and documenting information. Sometimes they are complementary and create synergy, and sometimes they are quite different and create conflict. For partners working together to design and implement complex projects, the importance of frank and honest dialogue cannot be overstated. It is an essential element for improving both effectiveness and efficiency, and for ensuring that any issues that do arise are dealt with expediently, without jeopardizing the achievement of the desired results and impact. Through collage and role play, One Drop invites its partners and collaborators to explore and discuss how we can better work together to turn water into action.

Lab for Change is the perfect space for collective creation: one location, five days, and over 100 people coming together from different latitudes and cultures, sharing the single “language” of Social Art for Behaviour Change. The Art of Nudging is a laboratory where multidisciplinary working groups are exposed to a diversity of processes for nudge creation during three sessions taking place throughout the week. The nudges, addressing desired behaviours within the Lab for Change context, will be created and implemented at the event’s venue to impact all attendees. The creation process and some results will be presented on Thursday afternoon, generating a reflection on the possibility of replicating this methodology within projects. Workshop participants will learn the meaning of nudges, as well as how to design, test and implement them. Participants will co-create nudges, taking into account specific desired behaviours. They will also deep dive into SABC creation elements, which can generally be used in a WASH context and in their own projects.

9.00 AM – 11.00 AM WASH IN HEALTHCARE FACILITIES: DO NO HARM? ROOM: GUANAJUATO – MAIN LANGUAGE: SP-EN-FR

(HEALTHCARE WITHOUT HARM) – PART 1

Moderator: Véronique Doyon, Chief Program Officer; and Lauren Alcorn, Project Director – One Drop.

Speakers: Andrea Jones, Program Officer ‒ International Programs – Hilton Foundation; Margaret Person, WASH expert – Center for Disease Control (CDC) and Germán Sturzenegger, Water & Sanitation Senior Specialist - IDB.

What does it mean to provide safely managed WASH services in a healthcare setting? How can organizations contribute to ensuring that these services are cost effective and sustainable, and that they provide the essential basis for a quality standard of care? How do the WASH and health sectors intersect, and what role should funding agencies and implementing organizations play? A panel of representatives from various organizations will speak to their commitments and strategies for addressing this key issue. The audience will be invited to provide input on the presentations as well as to explore key questions via an interactive Q&A session. In light of the Call to Action addressing the urgent need for improved WASH services in HCF, now is a great time to join our panel to discuss and debate these major questions!

STRATEGY FOR GENDER SENSITIVE WASH

AND SABC PROGRAMMING

Moderator: Lauren Alcorn, Project Director; and Gabrielle Goodfellow, Director, Projects and Partnerships – One Drop.

Speakers: Emmanuel Trépanier, Consultant (Gender Equality Monitoring & Evaluation and Results Based Management) – One Drop; Tambudzai Rashidi, Team leader (InPATH project, Malawi) – CowaterSogema; and Janeth Osorio, Project Manager (ConvidArte project, Colombia) – Fundación PLAN.

Gender equality is a precondition and accelerator for achieving the 2030 Agenda and its Sustainable Development Goals, and One Drop is committed to promoting and mainstreaming gender equality and women’s empowerment across its projects. Access to WASH infrastructure and services takes on particular importance for women given their role as stewards of water, their reproductive health needs and their role in caring for children. Gender-sensitive WASH programming supports women to take on leadership roles and to participate in decision making, allowing them to experience better and safer access to WASH, more respect from other members of their community and increased confidence. WASH can serve as a strategic entry point to further women’s interests.

This dynamic session aims to introduce the guiding principles of One Drop’s gender equality strategy moving forward and to invite partners to share their knowledge and experiences in strategic gender programming as part of WASH projects.

PERIODS...SHHHH! - SOCIAL NORMS & MENSTRUATION

ROOM: Y KUAA – MAIN LANGUAGE: EN

Moderators: Priya John, Country Manager; and Lauren Alcorn, Project Director – One Drop.

An unprecedented focus on menstruation within the development sector has encouraged organizations to work towards improved Menstrual

Page 8: Program - One Drop Foundation · 10.45 – 11.00 AM COFFEE BREAK ROOM: NICARAGUA RURAL (GARDEN) 11.00 AM – 1.00 PM STATE OF PROGRESS OF SDG 6 AND THE ROOM: GUANAJUATO – MAIN LANGUAGE:

The power and potential of the Capital (C) component should not be overlooked. The generation of revenue for rural families relying on agriculture can provide the surplus needed for them to invest in essential WASH products and services, and can help them to satisfy these needs independently and sustainably. Similarly, strengthening the WASH supply chain for WASH products and services can increase availability and accessibility by lowering the price and/or improving the quality. When used in conjunction with the Behaviour Change (B) component to foster demand, these market forces drive up access to WASH and can create a lasting change. In this session, participants in projects including a C component will be able to analyze and share their approach and results, and to learn from other’s experiences, through a panel followed by round-table discussions.

Hygiene Management (MHM) in their respective fields. These efforts largely address concerns around access to sanitary products, hygiene behaviours and practices, availability of sanitation facilities, etc. However, a key aspect that requires attention is the social norms that often envelop menstruation with secrecy, shame and disgust, dictating women's lived experience of menstruation in nearly every society. This interactive workshop will unpack social norms surrounding menstruation in different contexts, shedding some light on the gender dynamics at play in these settings. Session participants will ideate on how to address gender realities or social norms in specific contexts while working on MHM.

5.30 – 6.00 PM CLOSING PLENARY ROOM: GUANAJUATO – MAIN LANGUAGE: EN

We will take a few minutes to revisit highlights of the day’s activities, and to underline the important achievements, in a participative session.

THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT: MULTIPLYING SOCIAL IMPACTS THROUGH

LEADERS OF CHANGE

ROOM: GUANAJUATO – MAIN LANGUAGE: SP-EN-FR

Moderators: Isabelle Viens, Luc Gaudet et Raïsa Mirza, SABC Experts – One Drop.

It is said that the fluttering of a butterfly’s wings in Paraguay, for example, can unleash a storm in Mali. In our projects, the butterfly effect takes the form of the leaders of change. Could their mobilization and involvement in the projects’ various processes cause a butterfly effect for communities at local, municipal, regional and national levels? Which parameters need to be modified for that colossal impact to take place? How can we all, as partners, support and facilitate such a process? Who are the leaders of change? How do they see themselves in this process? During this session, we will feel the butterfly’s wings fluttering, explore its meaning and consider how we can spread this effect further, alongside the leaders of change.

CLTS & SABC: ACHIEVING THE OPEN DEFECATION FREE GOAL

ROOM: Y KUAA – MAIN LANGUAGE: SP-EN-FR

Facilitator: Pascale Gravel-Richard, SABC Expert; and Priya John, Country Manager – One Drop.

This workshop is a safe, creative and interactive space to share experiences, tools and challenges.

Facilitators: Raïsa Mirza, SABC Expert; and Lauren Alcorn, Project Director – One Drop.

At One Drop, we have learned that innovation does not happen without a well-defined process that allows for gathering insights from users and tackling the challenges most apt for change. Through a hands-on design challenge, participants at this session will learn the importance of asking the right questions, ideating, prototyping and iterating for the process of innovation. Taking the ideas lying dormant in our brains and turning them into reality, this fast-paced and creative workshop will get participants excited about driving innovation in their organizations and in the communities they work in. Main concepts of human-centred design and the motivations for putting in place user-centred approaches will unfold during the workshop.

Main facilitators: Isabelle Viens and Pascale Gravel-Richard, SABC Experts – One Drop.

During this third and final workshop, two parallel processes will take place. On one hand, participants of previous The Art of Nudging sessions will wrap up the analysis related to their nudges, considering all elements learnt during the creation process and the observation exercise, and will put together a presentation to reveal the workshop results at the upcoming closing plenary.

On the other hand, all Lab for Change attendees interested in learning about nudging are welcome to join a dynamic and vibrant experience that will address subjects such as what is a nudge and how it can be used in a behaviour change process. They will also experience the preliminary stages of nudge creation and discover concrete nudge examples.

5.30 – 6.15 PM CLOSING PLENARY ROOM: GUANAJUATO – MAIN LANGUAGE: EN

Participants of The Art of Nudging workshop will present their nudges and results. In addition, we will take a few minutes to revisit highlights of the day’s activities, and to underline the important achievements, in a participative session.

Inodyl Fils, SABC coordinator (PRISMA 2 project, Haiti) – Centre de coopération internationale en santé et développement (CCISD).

Digital technologies have profoundly transformed societies, changing the way we communicate and the way we produce and consume information. This transformation has occurred rapidly in some sectors, while others have been somewhat resistant to change. Despite its slow start in this process, the WASH sector is no exception: it has begun to adopt digital technologies, especially for water management, including water availability, quality and use. The Behaviour Change and training components can also benefit from the strategic use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), which include digital technologies. This session will explore current use of these technologies in our projects, and will delineate actions aimed at extending their use, to increase the scope of our activities and the uptake of behaviours related to WASH.

We love stories. Our understanding of the world comes through storytelling: from the founding myths of our ancestors to today’s main narratives such as climate change, the water crisis, international cooperation, market liberalization, individual freedom and authoritarianism—all are articulated through stories. We, as organizations, also thrive by communicating our impact through telling stories. There are hundreds of thousands of them in our projects, behind every community, every person we touch. This session will explore the way we create, produce, collect, articulate and organize these stories, and how we can, collectively, improve the way we tell our common story.
