About this Event


Rotary D5450 WASH Symposium: DRIVING IMPACT: A Systems Approach

Discover how systems thinking can transform water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) outcomes across communities. This year’s symposium explores the interconnected pathways that drive sustainable impact—from urban infrastructure to rural resilience, from school hygiene to future-proofing our global WASH efforts.

We’re thrilled to welcome Charles Fishman, acclaimed author of The Big Thirst: The Secret Life and Turbulent Future of Water, as our keynote speaker. Fishman brings a compelling perspective on the global water crisis—rooted in research, storytelling, and urgency.

The day features engaging panels, hands-on workshops, and collaborative conversations designed to equip you with tools to scale impact through a systems lens. Breakout sessions include:

  • Urban-Rural WASH Systems
  • Partnerships and Fundraising for WASH
  • Healthy Schools & Institutions, Healthy Communities
  • Future/Proofing WASH Systems

Connect with sector leaders, innovators, and changemakers in a space designed to spark solutions and deepen partnerships.

Be part of the movement to build more resilient, equitable WASH systems—locally and globally.
