The USAID  Indonesia Urban Water, Sanitation and Hygiene
‘Penyehatan Lingkungan Untuk Semua’ (IUWASH PLUS) program is a five-year
initiative designed to assist the Government of Indonesia in increasing access
to water supply and
sanitation services as well as improving key hygiene behaviorsamong urban poor and vulnerable populations. Implemented by DAI Global LLC,
IUWASH PLUS works with governmental agencies, the private sector, NGOs,
communities and others to achieve the following “high level” results:

• An increase of one million
  people in urban areas with access to improved water supply of which at
  least 500,000 are
  from the poorest 40%
  of the population; and
• An increase of 500,000
  people in urban areas with
  access to an improved sanitation facility and
  all of whom are from the
  poorest 40%
  of the population.

 To ensure that improvements in
access to WASH services are sustained, IUWASH PLUS is guided by a development
hypothesis that focuses on strengthening service delivery systems so they can
more effectively reach the poorest and most vulnerable segments of the
population. In order to achieve this at scale, IUWASH PLUS undertakes
activities through four interrelated components, including: 1) Improving
household WASH services; 2) Strengthening city WASH institutional performance;
3) Strengthening the WASH financing environment; and 4) Advancing national WASH
advocacy, coordination and communication.
