Name a WASH topic you want to learn more about... Did you know there's likely a recent literature review already done on that topic at globalwaters.org/resources/w…? I have learned so much over the years from @Dan4WASH informative WASH emails in my inbox! I'm missing them already!

A friend, mentor & colleague Prof Tony Allen just passed away. His contribution to the field of #water will be remembered for generations. @kclgeography & @KingsWaterKCL @Kings_SGA will be lot poorer without his presence. I am 💔. May he rest in peace. He will be dearly missed.

Actions by governments to promote hand hygiene, including providing infrastructure, and activities to ensure access to water and sanitation, are critical at this time. So what have countries already put in place? #GLAAS summarizes current status & efforts: bit.ly/3hJnO8D

A failure to invest in the provision of #WASH services for all & to promote strict hygiene protocols on a large scale can be disastrous in combating #COVID19 in countries like #Nigeria. There is political will more than ever. #100andChange can be an impetus for a global solution.

Despite being critical in the COVID-19 response, improving hygiene is mostly absent in donor commitments to fight the pandemic, #WaterAid. < 15% of countries have enough funding to implement #WASH plans. IPC/WASH are a priority NOW. #BASICS #100andChange devex.com/news/donors-are-ig…
