ORGANIZATIONAL PROFILE
Guarantee Environment on Water Sanitation and Hygiene Initiative (GEOWASHI)
GEOWASHI is a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO). We are Non-Profit organization. We started as a State registered NGO in 2008 in Ondo State of Nigeria with the ministry of women’s affairs saddled with the responsibility to do so and later become incorporated with Federal Corporate Affairs Commission in 2018 with registration number (CAC/IT/NO-111410) A
We have received various capacity developments from United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF) on all the various aspect of water, sanitation and hygiene related interventions.
OUR FOCUS:
GEOWASHI is primarily focused on Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) related activities. Sometimes, we collaborate with other sectors to implement the WASH component of their activities. E.g we collaborate with Nutrition under WASH/Nutrition Platform, HIV to educate people living with HIV on importance of WASH (especially hygiene promotion) in boosting their Immune System, Communication for development (C4D) on advocacy, among others.
We are primarily involved in E-WASH to ensure that people are getting the updates they require and the sensitization on WASH even when we do not have grant to do that.
Whenever, we have grant, we implement to international best practices.
We also support other NGOs who need our technical expertise in project implementation, proposal writing, supervision and project monitoring as well as consultancy services for WASH related programme.
