Abstract

As one who has worked in the development of water and sanitation for nearly 45 years, I look over the wall sometimes into the world of humanitarian work, and see a very different environment from the one in which I have mainly worked. The particular contrast which I want to highlight is the wide international consensus around clearly articulated principles and standards in humanitarian work, and what I see as a far looser commitment to true professionalism in long-term development work, including in the water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) sector.

社论:是时候在追求可持续发展目标6的过程中认真对待专业精神了
作为一个在水和卫生领域工作了近45年的人,我有时会越过围墙,看到人道主义工作的世界,看到一个与我主要工作的环境截然不同的环境。我想强调的特别对比是,国际社会对人道主义工作中明确阐述的原则和标准达成了广泛共识,而我认为,在长期发展工作中,包括在水、环境卫生和个人卫生部门,对真正的专业精神的承诺要宽松得多。

期刊介绍: Published since 1982 Waterlines is a refereed journal providing a forum for those involved in extending water supply, sanitation, hygiene and waste management to all in developing countries. Waterlines aims to bridge the gap between research and practice: it encourages papers written by researchers for the benefit of practice and those written by practitioners to inform research and policy. It highlights information sources and promotes debate between different perspectives. Waterlines considers the key challenges facing those in the water and sanitation sector–engineers, health professionals.
