description |
In 2000, the United Nations Development
Program set a Millennium Development Goal (MDG) to reduce,
by half, the number of people without access to basic
sanitation by 2015. In 2008, when projections showed that
countries in Africa were unlikely to reach this target,
delegates from 32 African countries drafted and signed the
eThekwini Declaration and AfricaSan action plan to renew
commitments and identify strategic actions. At the East
Africa Sanitation Conference held March 2010, analysis of
progress to date showed that most countries had national
sanitation policies and plans, an encouraging sign, but that
poor coordination, particularly at district level, continued
to hamper improvements and that budget allocations for
sanitation remained far below the target of 0.5 percent of
Gross National Product (GNP) recommended in the eThekwini declaration. |
