To meet the goal of universal access of water and sanitation services (Sustainable Development Goal 6) we need to change the way we do business. It calls for us to learn from different areas outside water.
Peter Laugharn, CEO of the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, takes us back to the times when he was working on the goal of 'education for all' - in the nineties in Mali,where he was working with Save the Children as deputy director of a field office. Times in which he learned the tough lessons of what it means to lack mandate, and the need to have a lon-term vision.
Lessons that are now being applied in Hilton's Safe Water Strategy its implementation with partners in districts like Asutifi-North in Ghana.

'Not all problems in the health sector are solved, but appreciating that there is a system has supported us in how to do things.'
In this video, Dr Gilbert Buckle shares how applying a systems approach in the health sector and working on strengthening the building blocks that shape the system is helping to achieve the outcomes they want to see.
He made a call to those WASH professionals, wanting to address WASH in health care facilities: 'when you come to to hit me where I am, you need to understand 'my [health care] system' and you need to help me to use my system in the where it is, to achieve the objects of your various [WASH] system components. If not, we have a clash of systems.
Listen to Dr Gilbert Buckle and learn more about his work as public health physician and expert on health systems strengthening.
