Study Session 15  National Policy Context in Ethiopia

Introduction

Safeguarding the environment requires coordinated effort by individuals, communities, institutions and governments. In this final study session you will learn about the Ethiopian government’s policy response to the challenges of water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) with a focus on the relevant health, water and environmental policies. We start this study session with an overview of the different types of national law and policy before briefly describing the most important policies and programmes that relate to WASH.
