Progress on sanitation and drinking-water 2010 update
The latest report of the WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme on Water
Supply and Sanitation entitled "Progress on sanitation and
drinking-water – 2010 Update" provides the most recent data for
drinking-water and sanitation, along with the implications and trends
these new data reveal for reaching the basic sanitation and safe
drinking-water MDG target. With the MDG target date of 2015 only five
years away, it is time to intensify efforts towards achieving the MDG
target and addressing the glaring disparities worldwide.
