Water & Sanitation for the Urban Poor (WSUP) Advisory India

Water & Sanitation for the Urban Poor (WSUP) helps transform cities to benefit the millions who lack access to water and sanitation.

Urban migration is leading to a crisis in cities in developing countries, where millions of people lack access to the most basic of services.

The organization is a multi-sector partnership; they offer a creative package of expertise from private sector, NGOs and academia to achieve this.

WSUP’s mission is to improve the lives of the urban poor in developing countries by strengthening the capacity of service providers and others to provide sustainable water and sanitation services, promote good hygiene and raise the health and environmental standards of the community.

WSUP was established in 2005 and has quickly become recognised as a leading actor in the urban WASH sector, demonstrating how multi-sector partnerships can have significant impact.
