Author: Sarah Pillone; Daniele Lantagne

Year: 2025

Publisher: Global WASH Cluster; Tufts University

While for the humanitarian response system as a sector, an academic manuscript published in 2020 found that approximately 40% of humanitarian responders are women, it is important to understand the barriers at global and national level that impede women’s participation in leadership in the Humanitarian WASH Sector.
