The meeting was hosted by Bhutan to take stock of the current progress on sanitation and hygiene in the member countries since the last 2013 Kathmandu SACOSAN V declarations. Member countries also deliberated on the objectives of the upcoming SACOSAN VI conference in January 2016 in Dhaka, Bangladesh.

Agenda point 1: Updates in response to Kathmandu Declaration

Need of specific mention on commitment 10 with regard to the participation to the conference by

the direct voices

Indicated that while there is adequate mention on schools and institutions, there is no

mention/update on the WASH in health care facilities

Expressed that the first two commitments/indicators must receive higher weightage since the

proper implementation will depend so much on the availability of legal frameworks. However, it

was also clarified that the current indicators are developed through consultative process and agreed

by the member states

Agreed the need of having common indicators. Currently the indicators are understood differently

and reported in various forms

Expressed the importance of deepening the commitment/indicators developed during the earlier

conferences rather than coming up with new ones in the upcoming conference

While ODF achievements were reported, there is lack of mention on how to sustain it

All the member state representatives appreciated Bhutan for having the WASH sector under the

Ministry of Health

Expressed the importance of not only having the impact indicators but also of the process indicator

ICWG meeting is not just about updating and reporting the progress but more importantly the

platform to share experiences and learn from each other

Adequate mention on inclusion, people living with disability, elderly people and schools children

but the labourers and out of school children are the ones left out

WASH in Healthcare facilities needs to be adequately reflected and captured during the upcoming

SACOSAN

There is little mention of toilets in public places. All the member states are encouraged to assess

the situation and report to the conference

In Sri Lanka only about 5% of the population do not have access to toilet. These are mostly people

living in the coastal region and conflict areas. Reported that there is special team to assess the

situation and will share all the information in future. Sri Lanka expressed the difficulty and

challenges they face with the last section of the population in accessing the improved sanitation.

There was also discussion of the need for legal framework for the SACOSAN proceedings.

There is need for commitment from all the countries to inclusiveness.

Agenda point 2: Progress on action points of 7th ICWG meeting

Progress Updated during the session.

Annexe 1.Refer details.

Agenda point 3: Sharing of JMP report 2015

A skype presentation by Mr.Rifat Hossain , WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme was presented to

the participants to showcase the progress made by individual countries and as a south Asian region. While

water supply MDG targets were made by almost all of the member countries, progress was not made in the

sanitation & hygiene MDG targets, except for Sri lanka,Pakistan and Maldives.

Annexe 3. Refer details.

Agenda point 4: 2016 SACOSAN VI Agenda

The SACOSAN VI Secretariat, led by the Bangladesh Country Focal Person presented the SACOSAN VI

agenda. With deliberations, the agenda was fine tuned in light of the developing situations in the member

countries. It was strongly felt that there was the need to bring the grassroots voices into the conference and

also to highlight the community based sanitation hygiene innovations from the member countries. India and

Nepalese delegations strongly supported this point to be included in the agenda and likewise, it was included

into the SACOSAN VI agenda.

Annexe 2. Refer details.

Agenda point 5: Next SACOSAN VII Host and 9th ICWG Meeting Host

The 9th ICWG meeting will be hosted by Bangladesh and was confirmed by the Bangladesh Country Focal

Person.Tentatively,Maldives country focal person agreed to host the 10th ICWG meeting in Male.

To host the SACOSAN VII, Bhutan and Pakistan were in queue to host the conference. However, Bhutan

expressed the financial constraints to host the conference. Further there was need to reduce the number of

participants to the conference due to single airport and logistical arrangements for the delegates, if Bhutan

was to host the conference. While WHO SEARO and UNICEF ROSA and other UN and CSO agencies agreed

in principal to support with funds for the conference, the final nod to host the conference will be made after

seeking formal approval from the RGoB.

Pakistan also showed interest to host the conference but due to various governmental protocols involved,

they needed more time before the confirmation of hosting the conference.Pakistan,CFP will confirm after

consulting the Pakistan government and will be informed to the SACOSAN Secretariat at the earliest.

It was agreed by all members that a final confirmation to host the SACOSAN VII will be made before the

SACOSAN VI and will be conveyed to the SACOSAN VI Secretariat before January 2016.

Agenda Point 6: Sustainable Development Goals

In transition phase to the SDG over the MDG,the member countries discussed the need to accommodate the

17 SDG goals into the SACOSAN VI agenda and also to take cognisance of the various goals and the current

existing goals on sanitation and hygiene. The indicators and monitoring framework to take up the SDGs

needed attention to detail and was agreed by all to give a thorough thought.

Proposed the need to link and frame the next conference declarations as the response to the

Sustainable Development Goals

Hygiene indicators are yet to be finalised during the Bangkok meeting in October 2015. As such,

there is still an opportunity for the member states to provide inputs

Expressed the need of having a regional monitoring framework

“-” = no data. “NA” = data not applicable “*”= due to lack of 1990 baseline, 1995 baseline was used to assess MDG target achievement

1 For communication purposes in its report, JMP reports display these proportions as rounded integers, which together add to 100% for drinking water and sanitation, respectively. For its database, available on the website (www.wssinfo.org), the JMP uses unrounded estimates to achieve greater accuracy when converting coverage estimates into numbers of people with or without access. Any discrepancies between the published estimates and those

derived from the JMP web site are due to the published estimates appearing rounded to the nearest integer.

2 Simple linear regression is used to estimate the proportion of the population using the following drinking water sources: piped water on premises; improved drinking water sources; surface water and sanitation facilities; improved types of sanitation facilities; open defecation. The remaining population uses unimproved drinking water sources and unimproved sanitation facilities, respectively.

3 Global MDG target applied to countries, territories and areas. Method of assessment: “Met target” if 2015 coverage

within 1 percentage point of target; “Good progress” if change in coverage between 1990 and 2015 exceeds 2/3 of target, “Moderate progress” if 1/3 to 2/3 and “Limited or no progress” if less than 1/3. Global and regional assessment: “Met target” if 2015 coverage equal to or greater than target.
