The Watershed – Empowering Citizens Programme is an initiative that aims to build the capacity of civil society organizations to lobby for evidence-based WASH and integrated water resource management. As one of the strategic partners behind this effort, Wetlands International is implementing projects using this approach in Kenya’s Kajiado and Laikipia counties. 

This presentation explored how working with civil society can mobilize communities to claim their water and sanitation rights and empower them to participate in decision-making.

This webinar is a part of a monthly series hosted by ABCG’s Integrated Freshwater Conservation-WASH Community of Practice whose aim is to provide a collaborative platform where global health and conservation professionals can share knowledge while connecting and organizing on how to solve common issues.

Julie Mulonga is currently the Program Manager with Wetlands International. She has worked in the Water and Environmental sectors for the past 20 years in water and natural resources management programs in Kenya. Julie has been working with Wetlands International for the last five years.
