informe Oct 2024 ; 130 páginas Ed. UNICEF - New York Formato descargable: PdF Descargable desde el editor Abstract: Achieving universal access to WASH is critical to reducing the spread of disease and adverse health effects. However, in many countries, including Namibia, access to safely managed WASH services in households and key community facilities such as schools and health centres is limited. Namibia has done well in ensuring that its people have access to safe drinking water, with approximately 99.2% and 88.1% of urban and rural households having access to safe water for drinking.1 However, significant gaps remain in the provision of improved sanitation. An estimated 50% of the population practice open defecation,2 making the country the worst performing in the Southern African region and the country ranks 10th out of 192 countries for the rate of open defecation globally.
