Shaping the Future of Healthcare: Day 2 of the WASH Regional Stakeholders Consultation in Eldoret

The momentum continued into Day 2 of the Regional Stakeholders Consultation Workshop on Draft WASH in Healthcare Facilities (HCFs) Standards and Infrastructure Designs in Eldoret. United by a shared commitment to improving healthcare safety, dignity, and resilience, stakeholders delved into the practical frameworks that will shape the future of clinical environments. The morning session focused on the Summary Overview of WASH Infrastructure Designs for Healthcare Facilities from the World Bank consultants where they presented a comprehensive overview of tailored WASH infrastructure solutions designed to meet the needs of different tiers of health facilities. Participants actively engaged in detailed design reviews to ensure the proposed standards are not only structurally sound but also practical, inclusive, and responsive to the realities of diverse healthcare settings. In the afternoon, the workshop transitioned into an interactive plenary session, providing an open platform for stakeholders to share feedback, challenge assumptions, and align the proposed infrastructure designs with on-the-ground realities. The Eldoret session concluded with a clear roadmap for finalizing the standards and actionable next steps toward implementation, marking the successful closure of a highly productive consultation workshop.
