GLAAS 2018/2019 cycle
With the 2018/2019 cycle, the UN-Water Global Analysis and Assessment of Sanitation and Drinking-Water (GLAAS) celebrates its 10th anniversary after successfully completing a pilot in 2008 and four cycles to date. In this fifth cycle, the GLAAS 2018/2019 country survey will cover four key areas of the enabling environment (governance, monitoring, human resources and finance) with a special focus on national policies, plans and targets. There is currently no global mechanism for monitoring progress towards national WASH targets under the SDGs, nor for reviewing how countries have taken the ambitions of the SDGs into consideration in their national WASH enabling environments. The GLAAS 2018/2019 cycle, with a focus on national policies, plans and targets, will contribute to filling this gap.
The next GLAAS report will be published in 2019 well in advance of the Sanitation and Water for All (SWA) High Level Meeting in 2020, providing sufficient time for the report to inform national high-level dialogue by both sector and finance ministers. Building on the GLAAS 2017 report, finance will continue to be a major theme of the GLAAS 2019 report.
