UN-Water Global Analysis and Assessment of Sanitation and Drinking-Water (GLAAS) - 2012 Report

Thus, there is a serious risk of slipping backwards on gains already made. The analysis emerging from UN-Water GLAAS also helps to identify the reasons behind the disparities in access to sanitation and drinking-water among different regions, communities and income groups.
