Post 2015 WASH Targets and Indicators, 2013.
Joint Monitoring Programme
Detailed targets
When consolidated, the proposals developed by each of the four working groups – Water, Sanitation, Hygiene, and Equity and Non-Discrimination – yield the following, detailed targets.
Target 1: By 2025, no one practices open defecation, and inequalities in the practice of open defecation have been progressively eliminated.
Target 2: By 2030, everyone uses a basic drinking water supply and handwashing facilities when at home, all schools and health centres provide all users with basic drinking water supply and adequate sanitation, handwashing facilities and menstrual hygiene facilities, and inequalities in access to each of these services have been progressively eliminated.
Target 3: By 2040, everyone uses adequate sanitation when at home, the proportion of the population not using an intermediate drinking water supply service at home has been reduced by half, the excreta from at least half of schools, health centres and households with adequate sanitation are safely managed, and inequalities in access to each of these services have been progressively reduced.
Target 4: All drinking water supply, sanitation and hygiene services are delivered in a progressively affordable, accountable, and financially and environmentally sustainable manner.
