Book Description
"The UN-Water Global Analysis and Assessment of Sanitation and Drinking-Water (GLAAS) 2014 Report, Investing in Water and Sanitation: Increasing Access, Reducing Inequalities, is the third biennial report to be published since the original founding of GLAAS, in 2008. GLAAS was first established to enhance the evidence base and help identify bottlenecks to progress in water and sanitation, as well as inform actions undertaken by UN-Water members and partners. The GLAAS biennial reports analyse and assess both the inputs (human resources and finance) and the enabling environment (laws, plans and policies, institutional arrangements and monitoring systems) for WASH and complement the WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme for Water Supply and Sanitation reports that monitor WASH sector outcomes."--Page 2.
