From 2015 to 2018, Conservation International and the Jane Goodall Institute piloted innovative projects that integrate freshwater conservation and water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) in South Africa and Uganda, respectively.
On September 6, 2018, Colleen Sorto, Director for Development Partnerships at Conservation International, and Peter Apell, Programs Director at the Jane Goodall Institute Uganda, presented the lessons learned from the implementation of ABCG's activities to integrate Freshwater Conservation and WASH under the Global Health Linkages thematic area.
This event was hosted by the Africa Biodiversity Collaborative Group as a part of its Washington, D.C., speaker series, which aims to foster information exchange and lessons sharing among cross-sector practitioners.
