Abstract
The purpose of this discussion paper is to build momentum and to move from ideas to action on climate-resilient sanitation. The paper draws on discussions held at the IWA Development Congress Kigali Workshop on Climate Resilience and Urban Sanitation (December 2023) and the Global South Academic Conclave on Climate and Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) and climate linkages held at CEPT University (February 2024). Building on current strategies and ensuring avoidance of maladaptation, the paper lays out short- and long-term priorities and concludes with six key messages pertaining to inclusion, mainstreaming, co-benefits, financing, research and innovation, and considering sanitation chains within urban water cycles.
