5. A dedicated goal on water & sanitation
GOAL 6: Ensure availability and sustainable
management of water and sanitation for all 6 targets
TARGET 6.1: By 2030, achieve universal and equitable
access to safe and affordable drinking water for ALL
TARGET 6.2: By 2030, achieve access to adequate and
equitable sanitation and hygiene for ALL, and end
open defecation, paying special attention to the needs
of women and girls and those in vulnerable situations

6. Proposed indicators for 6.1 & 6.2
3 Priority indicators for global SDG reporting
• Percentage of population using
safely managed drinking water services at home
• Percentage of population using
safely managed sanitation services at home
• Percentage of population with hand washing
facilities with soap and water at home
Plus 15 supporting indicators proposed by JMP:
– Improved water, sanitation, other ladder rungs
– WASH in schools, health facilities

8. Proposed National Indicators
The proposed targets for 2030 include 95
percent household with access to piped water
supply and improved sanitation, all
communities free of Open Defecation, and all
urban households connected to sewage
system.
Household connections are key to measure
the indicator.

9. Challenges Post MDG in WASH

10. Reaching the
Unreached
• Weak Database into Robust sectoral Information
System
• Planning according to geography & Climate
vulnerabilities ,promotion of Appropriate technology
• Subsidized cost, revisiting the rural policies on
community contribution
• Social inclusion in planning and even in tariff(Equitable
tariff approach ) regulated by government.

11. Sustainability
• Capacity in technical level on the part of project
implementers and technical and managerial capacity in
terms of water user committee.
• Climate change & Disaster Risk vulnerabilities
• If water is an economic good why not economize it?
Inclusive planning concept
• Enforcement of Regulation
• New Avenues(NRW, Demand Management etc.)

12. Risk Based planning & DRR approach
2 years ago we asked 50 million NRS for
far-western flood related
reconstruction ,1 year ago we asked
200 million NRS for mid western flood
reconstruction and this year we are
asking 18.1 billion for earthquake
related reconstruction

13. Intervention in Water
Shed Management/IWRM

14. Water quality
Improved water to Safe
water?
18% of 84%
(16.5% approx) to 95%
How??
 System Calibration/Design
Standardization
 Regulation
 Quality Enhancement
program(WSP)
 Capacity Building
MICS survey

15. Sanitation
• Sustainability
• Urban sanitation facility (capacity
building/Integrated approach )
• Technology enhancement
• Adaptation according to climate risks
• Post ODF activities
• DRM and social inclusion angle
• Monitoring

16. Implementation Motto: Mechanism
Government
Leadership
Community
Ownership
Private Sector
Entrepreneurship
Stakeholders
(DP/I/NGOs)
Partnership

17. Role Segregation
DWSS/MOUD
• Regulation
• Facilitation
• Formulation of National Strategy ,plans and revision
according to need
• Capacity building of Utilities, User committee, Local
government
• Medium and high level projects
• Urban Sanitation Facilities(Waste treatment )

18. Role Segregation
Local Government
• Formulation and implementation of Programs
• Monitoring of Utilities/User committee (For basic
service)
• Co-ordination between the agencies involved inside
local government
• Formulation of local plan and strategies
• Rural Sanitation Facilities ( Small scale solid and
waste water both)

19. Role Segregation
Water utilities and WUSC
• There should be clear set of indicators to divide
the operational Mechanism
(Utility/Board/Private/WUSC/NWSC)
• Inclusive(Tariff, Service etc. ) distribution of WASH
facilities within the guidelines /strategy of Local
/National Government.

20. Role Segregation
INGO/NGO/DP
• Partnership in Capacity building Local/National level
• Partnership in Strategy building Local/National level
• Funds and resources

21. Conclusion
• Building the capacity
• Data Management
• Sustainability and Resilience
• Inclusion and Equity
• Regulation and standardization
• Clear working area/roles and
responsibility
• Action plan
