Pledge For Adequate WASH Facilities in Every School in Ghana

Pledge For Adequate WASH Facilities in Every School in Ghana

The Issue

We are Marching for the realization of our right to Water and Sanitation, and the right to education in a safe environment.

Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) are fundamental for good health and disease prevention in our communities and schools. Inadequate access to WASH facilities has a significant impact on the well-being of our youths. 

We are marching for adequate WASH in schools:

  • Toilet facilities that are sex specific and persons with disability friendly in every school;
  • Handwashing facilities with soap and running water at all times;
  • Appropriate solid waste management (i.e. waste separation for reuse and recycle) in all schools;

We are marching for prioritization of WASH in all schools:

  • Funding should be adequate;
  • Timely; and
  • Consistent.

I pledge my support for the realization of the Right to WASH for every child in Ghana.
