Abstract
The Planning for Climate-resilient Water, Sanitation
and Hygiene in Urban Informal Settlements research objective was to investigate how urban planning processes in Melanesia be strengthened through participation and integration to improve the resilience of WASH service delivery in informal settlements within the urban footprint. By doing this, we seek to increase the inclusiveness of WASH planning in urban
Melanesia so residents in informal settlements have access to more resilience WASH services. This study provides regionally appropriate evidence about what kinds of processes and systems could be explored within different urban contexts in Fiji, Vanuatu, Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea. The mixed methods research included desktop research, spatial analysis, household surveys, interviews, photovoice techniques, and stakeholder engagement. Based on this 1-year research program, some key lessons have emerged for practitioners and policymakers. This technical brief outlines some of the most important.
