Welcome to this page on the second African WASH in Schools (WinS) International Learning Exchange (ILE) 2024. This page will be updated regularly during the conference to serve as online platform for any updates and access to the slides used during the conference.

The overall goal is to build on the results and recommendations from the 1st African WinS ILE that was hosted by the Ministry of National Education and Literacy of Côte d’Ivoire and brought together Government representatives from 20 African countries and their key WASH in Schools partners from a total of 26 African countries. The outcome document of the ILE 2023 can be found here while the first African WinS ILE report is now available below or access through this link.

The International Learning Exchange 2024 offers the possibility to track progress of countries and their journey on WinS and how it can be further enhanced for scale and sustainability in the coming years to reach the SDGs for WinS! Be guided below with the agenda for the conference.
