The report presents updated national, regional and global estimates for WASH in schools for the period 2015 to 2025 and has a special focus on menstrual health
This update assesses progress on WASH in schools between 2015 and 2025, which represents the five years to the end of the SDG period. It shows that the world is not on track to achieve universal access (>99%) to basic WASH services in schools by 2030. Achieving universal coverage will require a twofold increase in the current rate of progress on basic drinking water, a twofold increase in progress on basic sanitation, and a fourfold increase in progress on basic hygiene services. Based on current trajectories, only 84% of schools will have a basic water service, 81% will have a basic sanitation service, and 79% will have a basic hygiene service in 2030.
This report includes examples of national data on additional indicators that could potentially be used for advanced monitoring of WASH in schools post-2030.
