Abstract:
Water and sanitation services do not exist in a vacuum, neither do the systems upon which they rely. Beyond technical and financial challenges, there are wider political and integrity challenges that have a powerful impact on how services are accessed and by whom. The human rights framework allows us to look at systems more broadly than is possible when considering water and sanitation as stand-alone development issues. Human rights aim to right the wrongs, to counter societal norms that may be discriminatory and perpetuate inequalities. This briefing note considers why it is critical to integrate human rights principles into the analysis and implementation of systems approaches, to ensure that services are equitable and sustainable.

Together with partners from the Make Rights Real initiative, the Sanitation and Water for All (SWA) global partnership has developed this briefing note to accompany governments and development partners in evaluating how human rights principles can be integrated into their systems strengthening efforts. It also introduces the PASTE process for integrating human rights principles into systems strengthening approaches, where each letter represents a human rights principle: Participation, Accountability, Sustainability, Transparency and Equality and non-discrimination. This highlights and reveals where human rights principles can deepen planning and monitoring processes for systems for water and sanitation service provisio
