Abstract | The Global Sanitation Fund (GSF) is a pooled global fund established by Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council (WSSCC) and funded by its donors to gather and direct finance to help large numbers of poor people to attain safe sanitation services and adopt good hygiene practices. As of february 2012, GSF is being implemented actively in Cambodia, India, Madagascar, Malawi, Nepal, Senegal and Uganda. In those countries, 68 sub- grantees have deployed a range of sanitation and hygiene awareness-raising and promotion activities nationally and in a number of regions. Because of their work, some 102,970 people have access to and are using improved toilets, among other leading indicators of progress. This bi-annual progress report presents the ongoing results of GSF programme implementation. [authors abstract] |
