Drinking water equity, safety and sustainability: thematic report on drinking water 2011 [1]

The WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme for Water Supply and Sanitation (JMP) monitors progress towards the Millennium Development Goal (MDG) target to halve, by 2015, the proportion of people without sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation. The JMP publishes a report every two years, which presents an update on the progress made towards reaching the MDG target for drinking water and sanitation. This thematic report on drinking water is designed to complement the main JMP report (WHO/UNICEF, 2010). The primary purpose of the report is to investigate access to and use of drinking water in greater detail than is possible in the regular JMP progress reports. The report includes multiple disaggregation of water service levels and analyses of trends across countries and regions. These illustrate in detail how people access drinking water and what changes have occurred since 1990.
