Open government and water and sanitation declaration
The Open government and water and sanitation declaration is an international call to bring together water and open government reformers and mobilize ambitious action that strengthens implementation of water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) service delivery.

A broad coalition of civil society and international organizations worked to co-create the declaration. The declaration remains open for endorsement from open government and water advocates through September 2021.
