for health and economicdevelopment in cities. With urban growth in Indonesia
averaging 4.4% a year(World Bank, 2016), a failure to invest in urban
sanitation will become abarrier for almost any development. Access to
sanitation is a human right andgovernments are the duty bearers of progressive
realisation of this right. Withthe Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs),
Indonesia’s governments has committedto work towards universal access of safely
managed sanitation services andimproved hygiene.

in their area.In partnership with national and government counterparts, the
WASH SDGs programmeaims to improve the way human waste is managed by addressing
the entiresanitation chain and answering different needs among the population
withappropriate and sustainable service delivery models.
