The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development puts sustainability at the forefront of global development. Since 2008, the Sustainable Sanitation Alliance (SuSanA) has been engaged in advocating for sustainability issues in sanitation. This background document describes how sustainable sanitation links to all SDGs and outlines challenges and opportunities this represents. It complements the revised SuSanA Vision Document “Contribution of Sustainable Sanitation to the Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development”.
This document was presented at the 24th SuSanA meeting held in Stockholm, in August 2017. Please refer to the recording of the presentation (see link below, starting time in the video: 1:25:45).
