Global research agenda for improving the health safety and dignity of sanitation workers World Health Organization (2022)

Growing and protecting the sanitation workforce is vital to improving sanitation globally. A joint report Health, Safety and Dignity of Sanitation Workers: An Initial Assessment identified building the evidence bases as one of four areas for action to improve conditions of sanitation workers.

Yet there is a lack of research and evidence on sanitation workers particularly in low- and middle-income countries. This research agenda is intended to focus research activities on topics of greatest relevance to understanding and addressing challenges faced by sanitation workers globally . The research agenda was developed using a consultative process involving a wide range of stakeholders to focus research where it is most needed.
