The importance of sanitation goes beyond infrastructure
The importance of sanitation goes beyond infrastructure
About a decade ago, the United Nations (UN) declared that access to clean sanitation facilities and water is a human right to reinforce the importance of giving citizens access to clean toilets for better health. The UN also stated that to achieve one of the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) by 2030, i.e., universal access to safe and equitable sanitation.
The safety of women is a critical concern. The lack of proper toilets in schools is a critical barrier to students. The lack of adequate sanitation facilities is felt at different levels, emphasising the need for more robust integration of a gender perspective in the sanitation sector and ensuring the development of the individuals, communities, and the nation.
Importance of providing safe sanitation facilities
The benefits of good sanitation facilities extend well beyond establishing public infrastructure.
These include:
- Access to safe toilets and sanitation facilities is vital in reducing the risk of spreading dangerous diseases like diarrhoea, cholera etc affecting millions worldwide.
- Good sanitation facility is vital to reduce the impact of malnutrition, especially among children who are most vulnerable to sanitation-related diseases.
