Brief description of ToR
More than 40% of the world’s population still practice unsafe sanitation or lack access to improved sanitation
facilities. Associated challenges, in terms of public health and environmental protection, can therefore not be
overstated. consequently, the international community has set itself an ambitious goal to improve the
situation through the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) number 6. SDG 6.2 aims to improve access to
adequate and equitable sanitation and hygiene for all and end open defecation by 2030. Despite laudable
efforts by the South African government, about 18% of South African households only have access to either an
unimproved form of sanitation or practice open defecation (StatSA, 2018).
