| || **Why these indicators? What will they measure and provide information for? ** \\ These indicators relate to **one of CARE’s four core sectors for humanitarian response: Shelter, FNS, SRMH, WASH.** **It aims to gather disaggregated data on number of crisis / disaster affected households supported by CARE and/or its partners with WASH assistance and its grounding in relevant sector standards.** \\ **Access to safe drinking water, use of adequate sanitation facilities and of good hygiene practices (WASH) are indivisible and **critical determinants for survival in the initial stages of a disaster and therefore are priority areas for lifesaving assistance in most humanitarian disasters and crisis. Beyond survival, simply providing sufficient water and sanitation facilities will not, on its own, ensure their optimal use or impact on public health. In order to achieve the maximum benefit from a response, it is imperative that disaster-affected people have the necessary information, knowledge and understanding to prevent water- and sanitation-related diseases and to get involved (individually and/or collectively) in the selection, design and maintenance of these facilities. || | || **Why these indicators?

| - | || **What Humanitarian Standards and Humanitarian Indicators are these indicators connected to? ** \\ **These indicators refer to the **[[http://www.spherehandbook.org/en/how-to-use-this-chapter-3/|**SPHERE minimum standards in water supply, sanitation and hygiene promotion**]] which aim to protect public health through ensuring the optimal use of all water supply and sanitation facilities and practicing safe hygiene. The focus on hygiene promotion is crucial and specific as it is vital to a successful WASH intervention. In general terms, hygiene promotion is integral to all of the sections and is reflected in the indicators for water supply, excreta disposal, vector control, solid waste management and drainage. \\ The[[https://www.humanitarianresponse.info/en/applications/ir|**Humanitarian Response Indicators Registry**]]** includes a wide range of WASH outcome indicators** (total of 17) which include but are not limited to: \\ * Use of safe water for drinking and cooking (W1-7) \\ * Defecation practices (W1-8, W3-1) \\ * Hand washing (W1-9) \\ * Access and water quantity (W2-3 and W2.4) \\ [[http://www.oecd.org/derec/adb/tool-kit-gender-equality-results-indicators.pdf|**AusAid/OECD Gender Equality Toolkit**]]specifically requires monitoring of safety and privacy of water and sanitation sites and housing as well as equal control over use and maintenance of WASH facilities. || | + | || **What Humanitarian Standards and Humanitarian Indicators are these indicators connected to? ** \\ **These indicators refer to the **[[https://handbook.spherestandards.org/|**SPHERE minimum standards in water supply, sanitation and hygiene promotion**]] which aim to protect public health through ensuring the optimal use of all water supply and sanitation facilities and practicing safe hygiene.
