Participating in the SPLASH Challenge starts with a simple but powerful self-assessment process. Your institution will form a diverse team to evaluate your current Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) facilities and practices using our easy-to-follow self-assessment form. This process helps you identify key challenges and opportunities for improvement.
Once you submit your completed self-assessment, ApA will review all submissions and select a group of institutions to join a follow-up workshop. During this workshop, your team will receive hands-on guidance on how to develop a strong project proposal based on your self-assessment findings. These proposals will then compete for funding from the SPLASH initiative to help you implement meaningful WASH improvements.
Follow these simples steps to join:
1. Form Your TeamAssemble a group of at least 6 people from different roles within your institution—teachers, students, administrators, medical staff, or users. Aim for gender balance and diverse perspectives to ensure an honest and comprehensive assessment.
2. Complete the Self-AssessmentTogether, walk through your institution’s facilities, observe water supply, sanitation, hygiene practices, and take photos as needed. Fill out the self-assessment form honestly and thoroughly. This process should take less than one hour.
3. Submit Your FormSend your completed self-assessment to
splash@aguaporagua.com by July 31st 2025, 23:59. Make sure your submission includes all required information and photos.
4. Attend the Proposal Development WorkshopIf selected, participate in a workshop where you will learn how to turn your assessment into a compelling project proposal. This is your chance to secure funding and support for your WASH improvement project.
