Learning alliances, guided by change hubs, are a core element in IRC’s praxis for strengthening WASH systems. Honed over more than a decade of application in the field, they are our approach to social learning and collective action, which we believe to be essential prerequisites to driving innovation and change in water, sanitation and hygiene service delivery.
This working paper sets out the thinking behind our use of learning alliances, offers practical guidance on how to adopt the approach and build a change hub to support it, and discusses examples from Ghana and Uganda.
