Water is the blue thread of integration connecting people, places, and progress. It is essential to the well-being of children and their communities and creates pathways out of poverty. Water transforms lives by driving economic growth, food security, environmental resilience, safe healthcare, and educational success. Mapping the Blue Thread is World Vision’s 2026 to 2030 global business plan to deliver adaptive water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) solutions for a better, healthier world across 42 countries. Our data-driven approach enables country WASH teams to deliver targeted, location-specific strategies that maximize impact, effectiveness, and sustainability.

Thanks to the World Vision USA-funded WASH project, health centers like Matimba and Ntoma in Rwanda have experienced a transformative shift from years of water scarcity and poor hygiene to having reliable access to clean water, proper sanitation, and improved maternity and laundry facilities. This has enhanced the quality of care for thousands of patients each month, reduced infections, and restored dignity to mothers and healthcare workers alike. Originally targeting 14 facilities, the project now benefits 18 centers and their surrounding communities, offering a healthier and more hygienic future for all.
