Over 1 billion people lack access to safe water and over 3 billion people lack adequate sanitation facilities. This number could rise to 5.5 billion within 20 years. Forty percent of people in developing countries do not have improved sanitation. There is a need to prioritize safe containment and disposal of human waste to reduce health risks from diseases caused by unsafe water and sanitation such as diarrhea. Providing access to adequate sanitation allows people to live with dignity and have their basic needs met. Efforts are needed to generate awareness of good hygiene and sanitation practices and ensure sustainability of related infrastructure.

2.  Today, more than one billion people lack access to safe water and over
three billion, half of humanity, do not have adequate sanitation
facilities.
 The number of people without adequate water and sanitation facilities
could reach 5.5 billion in the next 20 years.
 Forty percent of people do not have improved sanitation facilities in
developing countries.
Providing “Sanitation facilities” and
“Hygienic Awareness” is the Main Aim.

3.  Lack of priority to safe confinement and disposal of human excreta poses
significant health risks manifest in the sanitation challenge facing the
nation today.
 Inadequate sanitation, hygiene or access to water increases the incidence
of diarrheal diseases as well as death. Most diarrheal deaths in the world
(88%) are caused by unsafe water, sanitation or hygiene.

5. To provide, with minimal impact on environment,
acceptable, and sustainable sanitation services for
hygienic awareness.
Access to adequate sanitation literally signifies crossing
the most critical barrier to a life of dignity and fulfillment
of basic needs.
Generate mass awareness on key behaviors and practices
which need to be adopted for improved sanitation and
hygienic conditions.
Media should be used as a medium to encourage people
and ensuring sustainability of sanitation infrastructure
and behavior.

Meeting the demand for safe
sanitation services: To enable
universal access to sustainable
sanitation services by supporting
the development of radically new
sanitation technologies as well as
markets for new sanitation products
and services.
Ensuring sustainability of
sanitation infrastructure and
behavior : Build global demand
for better sanitation which
includes efforts to end open
defecation in rural areas and to
implement improved measures for
collecting waste, removing
pathogens from waste streams, and
recovering valuable resources and
energy.
