Why is it so important?
• Inadequate sanitation is estimated to cause
432 000 diarrhoeal deaths annually and is a
major factor in several neglected tropical
diseases, including intestinal worms,
schistosomiasis, and trachoma.
• Poor sanitation is linked to transmission of
diseases such as cholera, diarrhoea, dysentery,
hepatitis A, typhoid and polio and exacerbates
stunting.
• Poor sanitation reduces human well-being,
social and economic development due to
impacts such as anxiety, risk of sexual assault,
and lost educational opportunities.
• 2.0 billion people still do not have basic
sanitation facilities such as toilets or latrines.
• Of these, 673 million still defecate in the
open, for example in street gutters, behind
bushes or into open bodies of water.
• At least 10% of the world’s population is
thought to consume food irrigated by
wastewater.
• Cropland in peri-urban areas irrigated by
mostly untreated urban wastewater is
estimated to be approximately 36 million
hectares (equivalent to the size of Germany)

Grateful, I slept till a morning that would not say
How much I believed the storm of yesterday
But quietly drew my attention to what had been done
—So many cubic metres the more in my cistern
Against a leonine summer—, putting first things first:
Thousands have lived without love, not one without water.
-First Things First
W. H. Auden
