Health and Sanitation (PGDHSI/DHSI)

Sanitation is important for health and development around the world. Adequate sanitation, together with safe water, and good hygiene are foundation of good health and of social and economic development. Progress in one or more of these three components of good health can decrease the rates of morbidity and the severity of various diseases and increase the quality of life of extensive numbers of people, especially children, in developing countries.

All over the world, more than 800 children under the age of 5 years die every day from preventable diarrhoea-related diseases caused by lack of access to water, sanitation and hygiene. In addition, diarrhoea leads children to lose their appetites, resulting in malnutrition. Limited access to sanitation has become such a global issue that one out of every four childrensuffer from stunted growth. This leads to “irreversible physical and cognitive damage". The health sector has a powerful motivation for improving sanitation.
