About National Sanitation Policy Advocacy in Eastern Africa Project
Kenya, like many African countries, has made commitments to increase investment in sanitation to a minimum of 0.5% of the country’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP), to facilitate universal coverage. To ensure this becomes a reality, there are several issues that need to be addressed, including a conducive enabling environment supported by a policy framework that makes it possible for the countries to invest and accelerate access to safely managed sanitation.
However, the rate of growth is too slow to meet Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) expectations, and the investment in the sector must be accelerated if this was to become a reality. APHRC is implementing a 3-year National Sanitation Policy Advocacy project in Eastern Africa.
The project intends to support countries to develop or review their policies to be compliant with SDGs and the Africa Sanitation Policy guidelines (ASPG) that have been developed to harmonise the process of policymaking and the best practices with regards to the content of a good policy.
