By
Deutsche Welthungerhilfe e.v.
Introduction:
Welthungerhilfe (WHH) is one of Germany’s largest private aid agencies. In South Asia, over the past 55 years, WHH has supported over 1500 rural development projects through local partner organizations contributing towards combating poverty, hunger, and malnutrition. Our approach is to work as partners and support local organizations in improving the living conditions of vulnerable people in a sustainable way.
This RFP is for a Viva con Agua and Welthungerhilfe co-funded project which aims at Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) related behaviour change in children and vulnerable communities. We are using a unique approach called Universal Language for Behaviour Change (UL4BC) through art, music, sports, dialogues and strong monitoring and evaluation in our project areas in Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. These activities are focused on WASH related problems and finding their sustainable solutions.
