Human-Centered Design for Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (HCD for WASH)
In WASH, HCD has been used to design new technologies, service delivery models, behavior change strategies, marketing materials and even courses and training materials. HCD promotes deep engagement with users to nurture innovative, sustainable and scalable solutions. The HCDforWASH platform provides tools and resources for all stages of HCD project development: discovery, creation, delivery.
JAXA Realtime Rainfall Watch
JAXA Realtime Rainfall Watch shows global precipitation map called "Global Satellite Mapping of Precipitation" (GSMaP). Users can easily monitor the spatial extent of rainfall in real-time including heavy rainfall and typhoons/cyclones.
JAXA Climate Rainfall Watch
JAXA Climate Rainfall Watch shows global precipitation map called "Global Satellite Mapping of Precipitation (GSMaP)" for time scales from daily to monthly. It provides extreme heavy rainfall and drought indices using over-20-years GSMaP statistics. Users can easily monitor the indices as well as mean values of global precipitation on a map.

WWAP Toolkit on the Collection of Sex-Disaggregated Water Data
WWAP Toolkit on the Collection of Sex-Disaggregated Water Data
The Pacific region and in particular Small Island Developing States (SIDS) are highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and natural hazards, and access to clean drinking water and safe sanitation is still limited in these countries.
The extent of the challenges, however, is difficult to measure due to a lack of sufficient and trustworthy data. There is a dire need for regularly updated data that is disaggregated by gender and other socioeconomic elements to ensure better reach, improved decision making, and more targeted planning.
