Abstract

BACKGROUND: Universal access to safe drinking water and sanitation facilities is an essential human right, recognised in the Sustainable Development Goals as crucial for preventing disease and improving human wellbeing. Comprehensive, high-resolution estimates are important to inform progress towards achieving this goal. We aimed to produce high-resolution geospatial estimates of access to drinking water and sanitation facilities. METHODS: We used a Bayesian geostatistical model and data from 600 sources across more than 88 low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs) to estimate access to drinking water and sanitation facilities on continuous continent-wide surfaces from 2000 to 2017, and aggregated results to policy-relevant administrative units. We estimated mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive subcategories of facilities for drinking water (piped water on or off premises, other improved facilities, unimproved, and surface water) and sanitation facilities (septic or sewer sanitation, other improved, unimproved, and open defecation) with use of ordinal regression. We also estimated the number of diarrhoeal deaths in children younger than 5 years attributed to unsafe facilities and estimated deaths that were averted by increased access to safe facilities in 2017, and analysed geographical inequality in access within LMICs. FINDINGS: Across LMICs, access to both piped water and improved water overall increased between 2000 and 2017, with progress varying spatially. For piped water, the safest water facility type, access increased from 40·0% (95% uncertainty interval [UI] 39·4-40·7) to 50·3% (50·0-50·5), but was lowest in sub-Saharan Africa, where access to piped water was mostly concentrated in urban centres. Access to both sewer or septic sanitation and improved sanitation overall also increased across all LMICs during the study period. For sewer or septic sanitation, access was 46·3% (95% UI 46·1-46·5) in 2017, compared with 28·7% (28·5-29·0) in 2000. Although some units improved access to the safest drinking water or sanitation facilities since 2000, a large absolute number of people continued to not have access in several units with high access to such facilities (>80%) in 2017. More than 253 000 people did not have access to sewer or septic sanitation facilities in the city of Harare, Zimbabwe, despite 88·6% (95% UI 87·2-89·7) access overall. Many units were able to transition from the least safe facilities in 2000 to safe facilities by 2017; for units in which populations primarily practised open defecation in 2000, 686 (95% UI 664-711) of the 1830 (1797-1863) units transitioned to the use of improved sanitation. Geographical disparities in access to improved water across units decreased in 76·1% (95% UI 71·6-80·7) of countries from 2000 to 2017, and in 53·9% (50·6-59·6) of countries for access to improved sanitation, but remained evident subnationally in most countries in 2017. INTERPRETATION: Our estimates, combined with geospatial trends in diarrhoeal burden, identify where efforts to increase access to safe drinking water and sanitation facilities are most needed. By highlighting areas with successful approaches or in need of targeted interventions, our estimates can enable precision public health to effectively progress towards universal access to safe water and sanitation.

Figures

Figure 1 Access to drinking water and sanitation indicators The mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive indicators modelled for water and sanitation. Each set of indicators collectively account for 100% of the population in the respective geographical area. The water indicators (piped on premises or piped off premises [piped], other improved, unimproved, and surface water) and the sanitation indicators (sewer or septic, other improved, unimproved, and open defecation) are outlined along with each indicator's corresponding facility types. Facility types are categorised into the standardised indicators as defined by the WHO–UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme to ensure concordance with global monitoring targets and comparability across locations.

Figure 2 Access to piped water and sewer or septic sanitation at the second-administrative-unit level, 2000 and 2017 Access was modelled with use of model-based geostatistics for continuous continent-wide surfaces and aggregated to the second administrative level. The results for piped water are shown for years 2000 (A) and 2017 (B). The results for sewer or septic sanitation are also shown for 2000 (C) and 2017 (D). Maps reflect administrative boundaries, land cover, lakes, and population; dark grey-coloured grid cells were classified as barren or sparsely vegetated and had fewer than ten people per 1 × 1-km grid cell, or were not included in these analyses.38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43Interactive visualisation tools are available online.

Green denotes second administrative-level units where most of the population (>60%) had access to improved facilities, blue denotes a more than 60% reliance on unimproved facilities, and red denotes more than 60% relying or surface water in A and B or practicing open defecation in C and D. Yellow indicates that there was no single dominant facility type used by more than 60% of the unit's population.

Figure 4 Effect of changes in access to water and sanitation in 2017 on child diarrhoeal deaths at the second-administrative-unit level Deaths are calculated under the counterfactual scenario in which access to safe water and sanitation remained at the values observed in the year 2000. The number of deaths attributed given access levels observed in 2017 is shown for water (A) and sanitation (C). The number of deaths averted (shown in green) or caused (shown in purple) in 2017 due to changes in access levels compared with 2000 is shown for water (B) and sanitation (D).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
