Sanitation Working Group
This group was responsible for proposing sanitation targets and indicators for global monitoring after 2015. The group is now consulted, as needed, to respond to the comments and recommendations made at the two consultations at the end of 2012 (on Measurability, and the Second Global Stakeholder Consultation). It is made up of a core membership of experts, who meet in regular teleconferences as well as less frequent face-to-face meetings. A wider resource group of experts is drawn on as needed.

The sanitation working group has been guided by a generic terms of reference for all working groups. [read more]
Initially, working groups collected a "long list" of targets and indicators, which were then reduced to a short list based on their appropriateness for global monitoring. Proposals were also made to the sanitation working group for targets and indicators covering equity issues. The short list was later consolidated with targets and indicators from the other working groups and widely consulted. In 2013, the JMP and partners is responsible for proposing a revised targets and indicators.
The support of the individuals and institutions belonging to the sanitation working group is highly appreciated.
