Emerging evidence suggests that widespread failure in coordination and collaboration between the health and WaSH sectors contributes to the substantive disease burden associated with inadequate water, sanitation and hygiene (WaSH). This results in missed opportunities at every level starting with access to water and sanitation and adequate hygiene practices in primary health facilities. This paper describes the application of an established health system functions framework to the WaSH sector and summarizes examples of successful health system action including the roles played by diverse health professionals.
新出现的证据表明，卫生和水环境卫生部门之间协调和协作的广泛失败导致了与水、环境卫生和个人卫生不足相关的实质性疾病负担。这导致在各个层面都错失了机会，从初级卫生保健设施获得水和环境卫生以及充分的个人卫生做法开始。本文介绍了将既定的卫生系统功能框架应用于水环境卫生部门的情况，并总结了成功的卫生系统行动的例子，包括各种卫生专业人员所发挥的作用。
