Population Using Improved Sanitation Facilities (in the Human Development Area)

In this context, Population Using Improved Sanitation Facilities means:

the percentage of the population with access to adequate excreta disposal facilities, such as a connection to a sewer or septic tank system, a pour-flush latrine, a simple pit latrine or a ventilated improved pit latrine. An excreta disposal system is considered adequate if it is private or shared (but not public) and if it can effectively prevent human, animal and insect contact with excreta.
