THE COURSE : PGD-WASHThe water and sanitation sector plays a keyrole in the human well-being and overalldevelopment of any society across the globe. It isinherent part of the development agenda fordeveloping countries like India where millions eventoday lack access to basic water and sanitationservices. Achieving universal sanitation i.e. accessto safe drinking water and basic sanitation serviceshave been identified as one of the key targetsaccording to the Millennium Development Goals(United Nations). Central Rural Sanitation Program(CRSP) launched countrywide Total SanitationCampaign (TSC) program in the year 1999. Foreffective implementation of the program the stategovernments have created special cells/units atstate and district level. The primary aim of theseinstitutional arrangements is regular monitoringand supervision of various sanitation programs.Recently the Government of India has alsointroduced a Rural Sanitation and Hygiene strategywith the objective to create Swachh Bharat by 2022under Swachh Bharat Abhiyan.However, one of the reasons for poor8progress of these programs is unavailability oftrained human resources at various levels ofoperations of TSC program. Today the availablehuman resource in the WASH sector comprise ofgovernment officials, contractual staff working withgovernment organizations, resource persons andexperts working with civil society organizations aswell as donor organizations, academicians,trainers and freelance consultants. Despite thepresence of wide range of experts, the sector has alimited number of practitioners who have acomprehensive understanding of all issuesconcerning the sector. The practitioners in theprogram now increasingly require soft skills suchas participatory programming and appreciationaspects related to equity, gender & human rights.TISS has been engaging with WATSANsector in variety of ways, viz., training, capacitybuilding programs and extension activities incollaboration with central or state government(s)agencies as also with international agencies.It initiated rural piped water supply schemes inthree states, supported by DFID. It also undertookTISS, Tuljapur Campus
the Jalswaraj Project in Maharashtra wherein GramPanchayat's performance in various sectorsincluding WATSAN was assessed usingCommunity Score Card (CSC) Methodology.UNICEF, in partnership with the WaterSupply and Sanitation Department (WSSD),Government of Maharashtra, conducted a TrainingNeed Assessment of District Sanitation Managersin the year 2010. The comprehensive assessmentcovered all 104 Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC)cell consultants working in the state ofMaharashtra. The findings revealed that there is aneed to train TSC consultants on almost entirerange of technical skills. Other emerging trainingneeds include specific inputs related to motivation,project management, documentation, planning andmonitoring. The findings of TNA once againbrought to the forefront the need for qualityprofessionals having exposure to both technicaland non-technical aspects. In the past UNICEF hadactively supported the training programs in theWASH sector, this led to a realization that there isPLACEMENT BROCHURE 2015-16need to shift from routine training programs toprocess driven education programs for sustainedcapacity development. Accordingly, UNICEFinitiated discussions with TISS, WSSD and CivilSociety Organizations. The findings helped reachconsensus that it is difficult to achieve the goals ofwater and sanitation without creating a fresh cadreof WASH professionals and buildingcommensurate capacities of the in-serviceofficials in terms of skill, knowledge and attitude.Thus emerged first course in Indiacomprehensively focusing on Water, Sanitationand Hygiene i.e.PG diploma in WASH. This diplomaprogram has been designed with the specificintention to fill this crucial gap which is prohibitingthe progress of water and sanitation programs inIndia. The broader objective of the course is todevelop a cadre of professionals with scientific andsocial skills to effectively manage WASH sectorand its services.9
