1. Impact of poor sanitationand unsafe water
  • HEALTH
  • 2.2 million preventable deaths of children
  • Diarrhoea the second leading contributor to
    global disease burden
  • For children under 15, impact of diarrhoea
    greater than that of HIV/AIDS, malaria and TB
    combined
  • Overall around 9 of the global burden of disease
    attributable to poor sanitation and unsafe water
  • EDUCATION
  • 11 increase in girls attendance in Bangladesh
    UNICEF study
  • Evidence of increased learning performance when
    worm infections reduced
  • ECONOMY
  • economic benefits of many times the invested
  • World Bank estimate between 2 and 7 of GDP lost
    through poor sanitation and unsafe water in
    developing countries

2. PrioritiesAid for health and education has
outpaced aid for sanitation and drinking-water

2. PrioritiesDeveloping countries report
insufficient funds to meet the sanitation and
water MDG target
9
UN-Water GLAAS 2010 ReportRecommendation No. 1
Greater political commitment to sanitation and
drinking-water by donors and developing countries
10
3. Targeting42 of WASH aid to low-income
countries
11
3. TargetingGlobal trends of WASH aid
Aid flows for basic water and sanitation remained
relatively constant at US 1.1 billion, and aid
flows for large systems increased from US 2.6
billion to US 4.3 billion from 2000 to 2008
12
3. TargetingPoor targeting to unserved and poor
populations
13
UN-Water GLAAS 2010 ReportRecommendation No. 2
Target resources better to reach the sanitation
and drinking-water MDG Target
14
4. CapacitiesInstitutional roles and
responsibilities need to be better defined and
operationalized
15
4. CapacitiesInvestment programmes in sanitation
are lagging behind
16
4. CapacitiesStaff shortages primarily due
toinadequate budgets
17
UN-Water GLAAS 2010 ReportRecommendation No. 3
Strengthen national systems to plan, implement
and monitor delivery of services
18
5. PartnershipsProcedures to promote local
stakeholder participation are weak
19
5. PartnershipsMost aid recipients have a
multitude of donors disbursing funds

5. PartnershipsAid disbursements generally
follow commitment levels
21
UN-Water GLAAS 2010 ReportRecommendation No. 4
Stronger partnerships to develop and implement
national sanitation and drinking-water plans

6. Highlights Donors
  • WASH aid increased between 2000 and 2008 by over
    150 to Africa and over 50 globally
  • Over the same period, WASH aid reduced as a of
    overall aid (from approx 6.3 to 4.7)
  • 42 of aid targeted to LICs (plus some regional
    aid)
  • Top 12 priority recipients receive 50 of WSS aid
  • ODA for basic services declined from 27 to 16
    over the last five years
  • Donors targeted 37 of WASH aid to sanitation
    against 63 to water
  • Predictability of donor funding as perceived by
    GLAAS countries increasing

23
6. Highlights Developing countries
  • Most countries developed national MDG targets but
    financial flows to WASH insufficient to meet
    these national MDG targets in many countries
  • Governments spend 20 of WASH funds on sanitation
    (median figure)
  • Only one third of countries implement criteria
    for targeting resources to the poor for water and
    hardly any for sanitation
  • Most countries have developed WASH policies but
    only one half have clearly defined and
    operationalized roles for WASH institutions
  • Most countries are developing some kind of HRD
    plan, but many HR obstacles are cited
  • Most countries have an annual review process but
    few update undertakings made in previous reviews
  • Around one third of sub-sectors utilize over 75
    of donor commitments, but 20 utilize less than
    50
  • Local participation in planning and
    implementation of programmes not consistently
    applied in any of the four sub-sectors
    (urban/rural water/sanitation)
