Re: Louisa Gosling

Dear colleagues,

Thank you for all of these heartfelt condolences, which we at RWSN are collating to share with Louisa's family. Louisa remains in our thoughts, and may her memory be a blessing.

Louisa achieved so much in her life, among them her publications. In honour of her memory, I would like to share some here:

  2. Louisa Gosling, Tripti Rai, Pedi Obani, Moussa Alou Traore, Landry Ouangre, Fauzia Aliu, Sonu Kumar Shah; Analysis of experience using human rights to accelerate WASH access in four countries. H2Open Journal 1 June 2022; 5 (2): 234–247. doi:  doi.org/10.2166/h2oj.2022.073
  3. Louisa Gosling (2014) Moving along the right track? The experience of developing a rights-based approach at WaterAid. Waterlines 33 (4): 357-374 (available here )

  7. Making Rights Real: working with local government on rights to water and sanitation WaterAid, WASH United, UNICEF, ISF-UTS, End water poverty, Simavi ( link )
Louisa leaves us with a legacy of practical knowledge and more which will stand the test of time. She and her family and friends remain in my thoughts.
The RWSN secretariat and co-leads of the leave no one behind theme at RWSN are collating condolence messages for Louisa's family and we welcome you to share them with us.

Best wishes,
Amita

Thank you for sharing this beautiful tribute to Louisa Gosling.

Her passion and dedication in advocating for those often overlooked in the water and sanitation sector left an indelible mark on the sector.

Louisa Gosling

Dear colleagues,
 
It is with great sadness that the theme leaders of RWSN’s leave no one behind theme and the RWSN secretariat announce the passing of
Louisa Gosling. Louisa was a former lead for the LNOB theme, and impacted many
of our lives.
 
I had the privilege to work with Louisa in person for some years. I share my own reflections here: In memory of Louisa Gosling: a mentor and an inspiration - Amita Bhakta - Hidden WASH (amita-bhakta-hidden-wash.net)
 
At RWSN we welcome you to reach out to us and share any reflections. Our thoughts are with Louisa’s family, friends, and all who had
the opportunity to work with her.
 
Best wishes,
Amita
