The PROMISE Consortium is an international partnership that strengthens national and municipal capacity for evidence-based sanitation and hygiene policy, planning, financing, and implementation. PROMISE works through country partnerships, technical advisors, and implementation-focused research to reduce environmental pathogen exposure, improve health outcomes, and institutionalize the routine use of evidence in sanitation and hygiene decision-making.\u00a0 PROMISE work is across six integrated thematic categories: Sanitation and Hygiene Systems; Exposure, Food Safety and Environmental Contaminants; Climate (Adaptation & Mitigation); Health Security (Wastewater and Environmental Surveillance and Antimicrobial Resistance); Digital Data-to-Decision Systems; and Healthy Institutions, Education and Workforces.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
