These annexes accompany the Guidance for Monitoring SMOSS to provide additional details on indicators, core and expanded questions and tools for designing monitoring systems to collect data for SDG 6.2.1. These annexes have been developed as part of the Monitoring SMOSS pilot project and are informed by the pilots conducted in ten countries as part of this project as well as other global examples of monitoring of safely managed sanitation services. The annexes are split into the following documents and are available with the main guidance at https://washdata.org/monitoring/sanitation/safely-managed-on-site-sanitation
A. Global indicators for monitoring SMOSS
B. Data collection – Household questionnaire
C. Data collection – household sanitation inspections
D. Data collection - Service authority and service provider surveys
E. Analysis to inform national estimates for SDG 6.2.1
Annex B focuses on household questionnaires and includes core questions aligned with global indicators to include in household surveys, as well as possible expanded questions for national and local planning. It provides guidance to avoid ambiguous question wording and sampling strategies to help ensure representative and reliable data. These questions can be integrated into national survey programs, and have already been integrated into UNICEF’s MICS surveys, enabling countries to track safely managed sanitation while adapting to their own contexts.
