1. Safely-Managed Sanitation: Monitoring higher levels of service in SDG Target 6.2

2. A higher rung on the sanitation ladder
SDG 6.2
Safely Managed Sanitation (SMS)
Going beyond hygienic separation of excreta from human contact at the household and including safe disposal in situ, safe emptying transport and treatment
MDG 7c
Basic sanitation
Private improved sanitation
Limited sanitation
Improved sanitation facility
Unimproved sanitation
Fixed point defecation
No services
Open defecation
Going beyond hygienic separation of excreta from human contact , including transport and treatment

3. Why “safely managed” and “safely treated”
The 2014 WHO burden of disease for diarrhoea estimate shows that moving from no sanitation to improved sanitation yields modest health gains (16% reduction in diarrhoea).
But when excreta to properly remove from household, communities and the environment health gains are much higher (additional 63% reduction in diarrhoea)
– this is what we call safely managed sanitation and wastewater – and this is why the indicators under the SDGs are more ambitious.

4. SDG Indicators for Targets 6.2 and 6.3
Goal 6
6.1 Drinking water
6.2 Sanitation and hygiene
6.3 Wastewater / Water quality
6.4 Water use
6.5 Water resources
6.6 Eco-systems
6.2.1 Proportion of population with Safely Managed Sanitation services including a hand washing facility with soap and water
Percentage of Wastewater Safely treated
Indicator 6.2.1: % of population using safely managed sanitation services (including a handwashing facility with soap)
Definition: Population using a basic sanitation facility, which is:
not shared with other households and where
excreta is safely disposed in situ or
(transported) and treated offsite.
