Sanitation and Wastewater Atlas of Africa

The Sanitation and Wastewater Atlas of Africa is the flagship product of a four-year project implemented jointly by the United Nations Environment Programme, GRID-Arendal, and the African Development Bank to describe the current situation of wastewater management and sanitation across the African continent. The Atlas consists of different chapters focusing on various aspects of wastewater management, including for example ecosystems, human health, policies and circular economy, and has a section with detailed country profiles. This publication is a tool that will help policymakers and the wide public across Africa and beyond to better understand and address the current gaps, and opportunities in this sector.
