National Flood WASH Response: Challenges and Solutions from Khartoum Meeting

The National Flood Taskforce convened in Khartoum on August 20, 2013, to address critical WASH issues following significant flooding. Key problems identified include damaged shelters, water-borne diseases, and contamination of drinking water sources. As a response, 96% of Basic Health Units (BHUs) in Khartoum are now operational, with ongoing water tankering by organizations like MSF and monitoring of water quality by health agencies. Supplies are pre-positioned, and information sharing continues amidst challenges of situation instability.
