Progress on sanitation and drinking-water2010 Update Didier Allély Abdou Savadogo
Joint Monitoring ProgrammeIntroduction The WHO / UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme for Water Supply and Sanitation (JMP) • A joint programme between WHO and UNICEF • Established in 1990 to monitor progress and trends of access to drinking-water and sanitation • Small team of water/sanitation specialists and statisticians • New strategy adopted in 2009 by donnors • Support from BMZ, SDC, DFID, French Govt, Dutch Govt, AUSAID, USAID. Budget 2010/2015 15 million US$ • Official UN mechanism to monitor MDG Target 7c: MDG 7 Target 7c “Halve, by 2015, the proportion of people without sustainable access to safe drinking-water and basic sanitation”
Joint Monitoring ProgrammeStrategic priorities Maintaining JMP data (data compilation and analysis) Sources of JMP data: Censuses and National Household Surveys under National Statistics Offices (Around 1 200 national data sets for over 200 countries) 729 nationally representative household surveys 152 national censuses 318 administratively reported data (developed countries)

Joint Monitoring ProgrammeStrategic priorities Maintaining JMP data (data compilation and analysis) • MDG indicators: • Proportion of population using an improved sanitation facility, urban and rural; • Proportion of population using an improved drinking-water source, urban and rural • Future indicators to address water safety, sustainability, safe disposal and treatment of pit content and sewerage Disseminating JMP data and estimates (Reports, website) Fulfilling JMP's normative role (indicatordevelopment etc.)

Joint Monitoring ProgrammeTrends and estimates World on track to meet the MDG drinking-water target From 23% in 1990 to 13% in 2008 and projected 9% in 2015 1 775 million gained access (1990-2008)
Joint Monitoring ProgrammeTrends and estimates World on track to meet the MDG drinking-water target 37% of the unserved live in Sub-Saharan Africa 884 million not using an improved drinking-water source in 2008 672 million people will still lack access in 2015
Joint Monitoring ProgrammeTrends and estimates The world will miss the sanitation target 1.3 billion gained access between 1990 and 2008 Target will be missed by 1 billion 2.7 billion will be without basic sanitation by 2015
Joint Monitoring ProgrammeTrends and estimates The world will miss the sanitation target 2.6 billion people without sanitation in 2008 Most countries in Sub-Saharan Africa and in Asia not on track
Striking disparitiesSanitation versus Water Over 40 countries under 50% access Just over 10 countries under 50% access
Striking disparitiesUrban versus Rural SANITATION
Population growth: A challenge against progress • Most unserved live in rural areas • Population growth impeding progress
Gender disparitiesin collecting water Women shoulder the largest burden in collecting drinking-water 7 out 10 are either girls or women Distribution of those who usually collect drinking-water
Serious hurdles towards reaching equity • Striking disparity in socio-economic equity • Sanitation: poor people strikingly at the lowest level of sanitation ladder • Water: rich people many times more likely to enjoy piped water into dwelling
