Our mission is to transform lives by improving access to safe water, hygiene and sanitation in the world’s poorest communities. We work with partners and influence decision-makers to maximize our impact. WaterAid/Anna Kari around 2,000 children die every day from water-related diseases.1 1 WaterAid 2012/WHO 2008/The Lancet 2012 US Annual Report 2011/12 |4 What we do: Water, sanitation, hygiene Safe water supplies free women from hours of water collection each day, meaning they have more time and energy to devote to growing food, earning an income and caring for their families. Good sanitation plays a vital role in stopping the spread of disease, but also improves dignity and safety, especially for women and girls. sanitation hygiene safe water health education WaterAid/Jon Spaull WaterAid/Rindra Ramasomanana WaterAid/Zute Lightfoot WaterAid enables the world’s poorest people to gain access to safe water and sanitation. Together with improved hygiene, these basic human rights underpin health, education, and livelihoods. Hygiene practices, such as handwashing, reduce the spread of water-related diseases, meaning adults are more productive and children are well enough to attend school. household income I don’t have a latrine in my house, so I go to the bush. It takes 15 minutes to get to the bush, over this bridge. I will be very concerned about my daughter going to the bush because it is dangerous. WaterAid/Eva-Lotta Jansson Sandimhia, Mozambique US Annual Report 2011/12 |6 Our technology Fly screen tightly fixed to vent above roof level We always use technologies that are low cost, appropriate to the local financial and geographical conditions and within the technical capacity of the benefiting community to operate and maintain. So that communities are responsible and feel a sense of ownership for their projects, they are involved in all stages of projects, from planning to building and managing the new facilities long into the future.

US Annual Report 2011/12 |7 Monitoring, evaluation and learning Grout Learning is central to our work. We continually review, refine and adapt our methods to make sure that our work is sustainable and meets the needs of everyone in the local community, especially the most vulnerable people. We undertake independent, participatory evaluations to help us understand how our work can be improved. These help us improve our effectiveness, enhance our accountability, and identify lessons relating to good practice.

US Annual Report 2011/12 |13 We deliver services In 2011/12 We delivered water and sanitation services in schools, ensuring a healthy learning environment. Gender-segregated restrooms in schools provide much needed privacy for teenage girls. We responded to monsoon floods in Pakistan and Orissa, India, helping affected people gain access to water and sanitation. We helped tackle Ethiopia’s worst drought in 60 years by providing emergency aid in drought-stricken areas in Ethiopia, while also building the resilience of water and sanitation facilities against future droughts. Our sustainability framework was completed this year and disseminated to all country programs. We continued to train people in each local community to undertake routine maintenance of facilities themselves, while also training handpump mechanics who are on call to fix more serious problems with water points across whole districts. Kudelo Kutema, pictured with her grandchildren in Mecheke, a drought-affected village in the Konso region of Ethiopia where WaterAid worked to provide a water supply. She told us: The journey to fetch water takes about two hours. Sometimes we have to eat leaves of coffee trees when we go to the gorges to fetch water so that we don't carry back the water with empty stomachs. US Annual Report 2011/12 |14 Our urban framework and urban manifesto were published, providing guidance for introducing improved water and sanitation facilities in urban areas. We helped poor communities in slums in major cities such as Kampala in Uganda, as well as those living in small towns, where rapid, unplanned growth and a lack of infrastructure are leaving many poor people without adequate water and sanitation services. We piloted innovative technologies, such as building a rural piped water system that uses solar energy for people displaced by flooding in Bangladesh, and a communal underground rainwater harvesting tank in Rwanda. Clarence House We ensured that water, sanitation and hygiene facilities were accessible to those who often get overlooked, such as older and disabled people, those who are terminally ill, nomads in Niger and prisoners in Burkina Faso. In November 2011 HRH the Prince of Wales saw WaterAid's water and sanitation work in action in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. 1 201 O T PNON IT F PRO Menstrual hygiene has become a core component of WaterAid’s hygiene programs. In January 2012 WaterAid was ranked #1 water and sanitation non-profit by Philanthropedia. We were honored to have topped the list of international water and sanitation non-profits in a survey of 116 experts. US Annual Report 2011/12 |15 WaterAid influences policy Internationally, we focused on getting governments around the world to join the Sanitation and Water for All partnership, a new global mechanism aimed at increasing political priority and resources allocated to sanitation and water. Nigeria India Madagascar Tanzania We helped form the Nigeria Water Supply Association to enable low-income consumers to engage with water service providers to secure their rights to water. WaterAid’s partners are monitoring the implementation of the right to education and supporting parents and children in calling for adequate water and sanitation facilities in schools. Our influencing work resulted in a commitment by the government to ensure that an additional one million people have access to water and sanitation by 2015. We succeeded in influencing the government to adopt our water point mapping tool (www.waterpointmapper.org) for performance monitoring in 63 out of the 132 districts. On World Toilet Day in November 2011 we launched our report Off-track, off-target: Why investment in water, sanitation and hygiene is not reaching those who need it most, highlighting the crisis in sanitation financing and calling on donor countries to double global aid flows to water, sanitation and hygiene by prioritizing an additional US$10 billion per year. USA Nepal South Asian Conference on Sanitation (SACOSAN) We continued to monitor implementation of the Water for the Poor Act, while also rallying support for the Senator Paul Simon Water for the World Act, a new piece of legislation that would make existing aid more effective without spending any more money. On World Water Day we held an Advocacy Day in Washington, DC allowing supporters to meet with their Members of Congress face to face to highlight the urgency of the water and sanitation crisis. We also launched an online system to enable supporters to email their Members of Congress. Our continued work raising awareness of the importance of safe water and sanitation for people living with HIV/AIDS resulted in the government applying for support from the Global Fund for AIDS,TB and Malaria to prioritize personal hygiene as a basic component of home-based care. Following extensive advocacy work by WaterAid the governments attending SACOSAN in April 2011 recognized the right to sanitation in their programs and legislation. Water for the World Act Spotlight on Nicaragua WaterAid's Nicaragua program was launched in July 2011, our first foray into Latin America. We are training local communities in: • Installation, maintenance and repair of rope pumps (a simple type of water pump) • Installation of eco-toilets (pour-flush toilets within households, connected to septic tanks and infiltration fields) • Manual borehole well drilling • Cleaning and disinfection of hand-dug wells • Household rainwater catchment system installation. The skills learned are being put directly into practice, resulting in safe water supplies being set up for households, schools and health posts, and household latrines being constructed. Our sanitation program is prioritizing assistance for households including disabled people, pregnant women or the elderly. 13 communities trained 46 water points rehabilitated 3,025 helped in Nicaragua in 2011/12 WaterAid/Water4 Josh Owen WaterAid's Nicaragua program focuses on the North Atlantic Autonomous Region on the Caribbean Coast. Home to many indigenous peoples, it is largely cut off from the rest of the country and is one of the most deprived parts of Nicaragua. While the landscape is dominated by rivers, lagoons and coastal floodplains, the vast majority of the population there - 80% of people - do not have access to safe drinking water or toilets. Schoolchildren fetching water from a borehole well installed with WaterAid's assistance at El Caminante School in the town of Bilwi. Bilwi, Puerto Cabezas Municipality, RAAN WaterAid is bringing safe water and sanitation to poor communities in Nicaragua through the use of simple, low-cost technolo gies such as rope pumps, solar-powered pumps, rainwater harvesting and pour-flush eco-toilets. Find out more in this short video. Empowering women Living without safe water and sanitation impacts women and girls the most. It is they who usually collect water, care for those sick with waterrelated diseases, and suffer the most from the lack of privacy when living without a bathroom. This short film explores how WaterAid's water and sanitation services are enabling women and girls to attend school, earn a living and lead healthy, dignified lives. In the training we learned how to wash the rainwater harvesting system, how to collect the water and how to maintain this system. Water is very important for us, we need it all the time. My child is very happy now because he's not affected by diarrhea, scabies, high fever and pains in his belly. WaterAid/GMB Akash/Panos Nasima Khatun, Koyra, Bangladesh Nasima is pictured collecting water from a rainwater harvesting system built with WaterAid's support in July 2011. Her community was badly affected by Cyclone Aila, which hit the region in 2009 and turned the freshwater ponds, their old source of drinking water, saline.

US Annual Report 2011/12 |29 Thank you. Your help is transforming lives in the world's poorest communities. I support WaterAid because they continue to take a very data driven, pragmatic approach to the problem of access to clean water and sanitation. I really appreciate WaterAid’s position and approach as it is based on facts and they don’t try to sugar coat the situation or provide pithy long term goals that cannot be measured or managed against. It is refreshing to see such an honest, straightforward approach based on facts and not emotion to what is a very challenging task. David Gilbert Singapore It hurts me to hear that 1 in 8 people in the world do not have access to safe water and about 2000 kids die every day from diseases caused by unclean water. WaterAid's work reflects the philosophy of self-sustenance by empowering people in some of the poorest communities to gain access to safe water, sanitation and hygiene. I am very proud of WaterAid's accomplishments world-wide and wish them continued success in their work. It gives me immense pride to be associated with an organization like WaterAid that is making a real difference in our society! Pramod Pillai Frisco TX US Annual Report 2011/12 |30 Cornelia McGuinness New York The TripAdvisor Foundation grants funds for causes that our employees support. Many of us were touched by the problems caused by the drought in East Africa in 2011 and so we did extensive research to find an organization that could put the Foundation’s money to work quickly and efficiently, and that would also have a lasting impact. We chose WaterAid because they have extensive expertise, a great track record and an excellent reputation for involving the local communities. So far we have reached over 15,000 people with clean water, and we are delighted with the results. Pump a village Aparna Manocha, Anjini Agarwal, Chetana Rao, Nikita Nawani, Ruhi Sehgal, and Trisha Malhotra, Windemere Ranch Middle School, San Ramon, CA Throughout my life I spent time living and working in the developing world. I have witnessed the challenging and devastating consequences of life without access to clean water and sanitation particularly for women and children. I support WaterAid because they are helping millions of people get a better chance at life with clean water. I believe all children should be able to grow up healthy and happy with clean water to drink and WaterAid is helping that happen. In late 2011 a team of eight graders from Windemere Ranch Middle School, San Ramon, CA decided they wanted to make a difference – both in their own community and in communities across Africa that were living without clean water. With their parents' support, the Pump a Village Team of Aparna Manocha, Anjini Agarwal, Chetana Rao, Nikita Nawani, Ruhi Sehgal, and Trisha Malhotra, has raised close to $4,000 to support their mission.
