High-level Meetings
SWA’s High-level Meetings (HLMs) are unique in the sector and the partnership’s most visible activity. They are platforms where ministers from different countries come together and discuss the achievement of the water, sanitation and hygiene related targets of the SDGs. These meetings are truly multi-stakeholder – as well as actively engaging in the ministerial round-tables and panels at the meetings, all of SWA’s constituencies participate in defining and preparing the meeting’s agendas.
Finance Ministers' Meeting (FMM)
The FMM gathers ministers of finance from around the world, to discuss the political and institutional reforms required to make better use of existing financing and to attract additional resources for the WASH sector to achieve the SDGs.
Sector Ministers' Meeting (SMM)
The SMM is an opportunity for ministers responsible for water, sanitation and hygiene to share and learn from others’ experiences as they progress towards national SDG targets. The SMM is also the moment when SWA partners present and report on commitments they make as part of the SWA Mutual Accountability Mechanism
