STRATEGIC DIRECTION Programmatic, integrated approach and theory of changeS

Hygiene Village Project intends to change its methodology over the next five years from a project-led approach to a programmatic approach to its work. These programmes will have an integrated, holistic approach to health problems, highlighting various aspects of preventative healthcare and institutional development. The programmatic work will:

i. Focus on empowering communities to ensure they will demand quality services and engage in healthy behavior ii. Increasing the impact and strengthening local structures in institutionally weak areas
iii. Focus on ensuring that communities should afford and sustain WASH services
iv. Capacity building to government health and WASH providers, CBOs and community stakeholders to be responsible and accountable to deliver quality health services in line with the needs of the community
v. Involvement of private sector in provision of sustainable WASH services vi. Improving access to comprehensive sexual reproductive health (SRH) services to prevent new infections and HIV.

On the other hand Hygiene Village intends to increase its potential by working with trusted partners whose main focus is to fulfill people’s rights in WASH, environment and HIV activities. HVP intends to request for partnerships with strategic partners with similar thematic areas both within the country and beyond to jointly accomplish a positive contribution. The organization provides capacity building to key community stakeholders for them to properly manage and reinforce their efforts in water, sanitation, hygiene and HIV issues.

Hygiene Village Project developed an M&E tools that make the output and impact easy to track. The tool encourages the staff to be more closely involved with the programme progress; it also creates more opportunity for other partners and stakeholders to be more closely involved in policy development, policy influencing and communication.
