SWA COVID-19 and Water, Sanitation and Hygiene Messages for Policy Makers

The Sanitation and Water for All (SWA) has developed this set of messages around COVID-19, to help partners:

• Make the case for the political prioritization of water, sanitation and hygiene systems as the first line of defence against this and other pandemics, preventing the health system from being overwhelmed and saving lives;
• Advocate for increased investments in water, sanitation and hygiene during and after this health crisis, especially among Heads of State and Government, as well as ministers of finance.
