Global Monitoring of Water, Sanitation and Hygiene Inequalities available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. While there is significant awareness of the importance of water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) inequalities, measurement continues to present a challenge. Sustainable Development Goal 6 includes universal targets 6.1 and 6.2, aimed at providing universal access to safe drinking water and adequate sanitation, but ways of measuring progress towards these targets are limited. Addressing how inequalities are measured, tracked and communicated is fundamental to accelerating progress in achieving this goal and leaving no one behind. We outline how WASH inequalities have been measured to date on a global level, and describe gaps related to tracking how different groups of people benefit from WASH services. We call for improved measurement that goes beyond the Sustainable Development Goal 6.1 and 6.2 indicators, by applying a wider range of indicators and inequality metrics, dis-aggregated data collection, with improved visualization and communication of inequalities to policy audiences.

Equality in Water and Sanitation Services available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. There is growing acceptance that the progress delivered under the Millennium Development Goal target for drinking water and sanitation has been inequitable. As a result, the progressive reduction of inequalities is now an explicit focus of the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) targets, adopted in 2015, for universal access to drinking water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH). This shift in focus has implications for the way in which the next generation of WASH policies and programmes will be conceived, designed, financed and monitored. This book provides an authoritative textbook for students, as well as a point of reference for policy-makers and practitioners interested in reducing inequalities in access to WASH services. Four key areas are addressed: background to the human right to water and development goals; dimensions of inequality; case studies in delivering water and sanitation equitably; and monitoring progress in reducing inequality.

The WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme for Water Supply, Sanitation and Hygiene presents updated national, regional and global estimates for water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) in households in its 2019 update report, Progress on Household Drinking Water, Sanitation and Hygiene 2000–2017: Special focus on inequalities. The report shows that in 2017: The population using safely managed drinking water services increased from 61 per cent to 71 per cent The population using safely managed sanitation services increased from 28 per cent to 45 per cent 60 per cent of the global population had basic handwashing facilities with soap and water at homeThe report also focuses on inequalities between and within countries and reveals populations most at risk of being left-behind.

This report shows how the world has changed since 1990. It provides an assessment of progress towards the MDG target and insight into the remaining challenges. Section A provides an overview of progress against the parameters specified in the MDG target for water and sanitation in both urban and rural areas. It presents data for the world as a whole and compares progress across regions. The report goes on to examine trends over the MDG period by region and by level of service. It pays particular attention to the numbers of people who have gained the highest level of service in drinking water supply - piped water on premises - and those with no service at all who use surface water for drinking and practice open defecation. In order to understand the nature of progress it is important to look carefully at the way improvements in water and sanitation have benefited different socioeconomic groups. This report sheds light on equality gaps between urban and rural dwellers and between the richest and poorest segments of the population. It presents several new ways to visualize progress on extending service to the poor designed to reveal the nature of inequalities and give the reader insight into the great challenge that still exists in ensuring that progress reaches everyone. The JMP was established in 1990 and is celebrating its Jubilee Year in 2015. Section B provides a retrospective analysis of the evolution of water sanitation and hygiene monitoring over the past 25 years.

"Even though progress towards the MDG target represents important gains in access for billions of people around the world, it has been uneven. Sharp geographic, sociocultural and economic inequalities in access persist and sometimes have increased. This report presents examples of unequal progress among marginalized and vulnerable groups. Section 1 presents the status of and trends in access to improved drinking water sources and sanitation. Section 2 provides a snapshot of inequalities in access to improved drinking water sources and sanitation. Section 3 presents efforts to strengthen monitoring of access to safe drinking water and sanitation services under a post-2015 development agenda, as well as the challenges associated with these efforts."--Publisher's website.
