UNICEF supported the state governments to develop Sustainability Compacts and Action plans in response to the 2021 Sector-wide Sustainability Check (SWSC) findings. UNICEF has also supported the update of the WASH Information Management System (WASHIMS) to integrate climate resilience, sustainability, and gender equality indicators, and improved government capacity to report on WASH routinely on the WASHIMS. For the HOSI, UNICEF supported the government to engage in regional and global meetings hosted by the African Minister’s Council on Water and the Sanitation and Water for All (SWA) partnership. In 2026, the Government of Nigeria was also supported to engage in discussions WASH financing and meaningful youth engagement at the IRC WASH Systems Leadership Symposium in Kigali, and to advance the Water Compact in collaboration with the Nigeria Water Development Partner’s Group. Building on these foundations, a systems strengthening consultant is required to support the federal and state governments to advance on the knowledge management and evidence generation, WASH service sustainability and the HOSI.
