Population Services International Europe (PSI-Europe)
PSI-Europe is a network member of PSI, Population Services International. PSI-Europe’s mission is to support and promote the programs of the global PSI network that apply intersectional approaches to optimise local resources for sustained access to water, sanitation, hygiene (WASH), menstrual health and hygiene, sexual and reproductive health and rights, HIV, and non-communicable diseases.
PSI’s WASH experience includes 20 years of extensive experience in over 20 countries creating markets for household water treatment products, and nearly 10 years landscaping, analysing, designing, and implementing market-based sanitation interventions in 12 countries in Asia and Africa. PSI’s approach has evolved from social marketing to primarily focus on supporting local institutions and private actors to shape markets themselves, with PSI providing technical assistance, coordination, and facilitation.
PSI’s expertise is rooted in user-centred design, social marketing, social behaviour change, and supporting the engagement and capacity development of the private sector to deliver to customers products and services that they want to use, as part of a total market approach.
Our partnership with NWP allow us to pool expertise to advocate, shape agendas, and mobilise resources for priority and underserved health areas. By joining to the NWP we will expand our WASH network and cultivate new partnerships. Together, we can build stronger health systems that serve consumers now and in the future.
