This report highlights how many women and girls still lack adequate access to public water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) in Asia and the Pacific and explains why focusing on gender equality and social inclusion (GESI) can level the playing field.

Despite improvements, inadequate access to WASH facilities for groups including women and girls, older people, and people with disabilities means they may miss school and loose opportunities for jobs and healthcare. Recommending countries incorporate GESI into national WASH guidelines, the report shows how providing safe, gender-segregated and gender-neutral public facilities with adequate water and disability-friendly designs contributes toward long-term sustainable development.
