The WIF aims at integrating allrnaspects of WASH activities, including the information system, under one umbrella and therninterest of this research lies on exploring the possibility for creating a framework for anrnintegrated WASH information system that can be shared by all stakeholders. The mainrnobjective of this research was to study the current status of WASH data creation,rnmanagement and sharing practices among organizations working in the sector and proposernan architectural framework that can be considered as a guide to setup an Integrated WASHrninformation system. To this end, this research focused on the use of indicators as primaryrntools for data integration and attempted to study types of WASH activities performed andrnindicators used by target organizations, types of data they collect under each indicator,rnformats for data collection including the data attributes being used, standards being used forrnformulation of indicators and practice of sharing between organization working in thernsector. Relevant data was collected mainly through semi-structured interviews and analysis rnof relevant documentations provided by the respondents. The result was eventually used to rnpropose an architectural framework that can be considered as a starting point forrnpractitioners working in the area. The framework was discussed with selected respondentsrnfor checking its validity and the overall reaction of the respondents was found to be positive.
