• Commitment to being an organization where everyone is welcome, included, respected, and where we celebrate diversity.
• Commitment to stand against all forms of racism, injustice, and inequality.

We are committed to ensuring we are an antiracist organization and that we address the internal power dynamics within and between WaterAid countries that hold us back from achieving our mission.
