Abstract
WASH interventions have not always been successful, despite the significant efforts to improve coordination and delivery of quality interventions. Assessments have shown that sustainable management of interventions must transcend the immediate intervention period to allow continuous infrastructural service delivery, social and behavioural change, civil participation, improved governance, and more robust community and public sector systems. This chapter highlights the challenges of sustainable management, approaches, and lessons learned from the humanitarian response, especially in providing WASH facilities in conflict zones and fragile communities. It would also focus on a case study of conflict-affected Pulka Town, Gwoza Local Government Area, Borno State, Nigeria.

Towards Equity and Inclusion Excellence Using Diverse Interventions
Interventions are common in medical settings as a specific strategy to address a problem or specific behavior. It is an act or something you provide to individuals aiming to have effects such as improving or changing a behavior. The intervention provides education in different ways. In educational settings, it can be different strategies for developing academic skills, and it can be professional development for teachers’ learning. That is, such an approach must add something in a certain context with a specific content and measure the outcomes. Measurements are made before and after an intervention.
