Today 4th September, 2023 marks the Launch of The Campaign “Just Sanitation for African Cities” which aims to mobilise a wide range of sanitation actors ahead of the SDG Summit in New York, where progress towards SDG6 will be discussed, to collectively draft and endorse a regional Call for Action.

This Call for Action emerges from the processes and outcomes of the OVERDUE action-research project, which was conducted over 3 years (2021-2023) in 7 African cities: Abidjan (Ivory Coast), Antananarivo (Madagascar), Beira (Mozambique), Bukavu (DRC), Freetown (Sierra Leone), Mwanza (Tanzania) and Saint-Louis (Senegal). It is a campaign that is deeply grounded in localised action, coming from the makers and users of off-grid and on-grid sanitation across urban Africa, who C.R.A.V.E in the draft Call for Action for the implementation of 13 action points to advance just sanitation and achieve SDG6. 

The acronym C.R.A.V.E. - which stands for the verbs Commit, Recognise, Act, Valorise and Engender - emphasises that this campaign walks the talk.

All 13 action points are embracing a feminist approach that acknowledges the particular needs, aspirations and capacities of women, girls, and those whose voices and identities are usually under-recognised in debates on sanitation. 

🗓️ online 04.09-11.09 2023, hybrid 11.09 and 12.09 (Nairobi, Kenya)

Join this campaign to:

• shape and refine the Call for Action with perspectives and sanitation experiences from your city and (professional) perspective
• raise awareness ahead of the SDG summit about the Call for Action at regional and international level
