Indigenous access to improved sanitation in Latin America and the Caribbean

This layer presents the percentage of Indigenous people who have access to improved sanitation services in 11 countries of the Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) region.In LAC, Indigenous peoples are 26 percent less likely to have access to to improved sanitation than the region’s Non-Indigenous populations. Lack of access to Water Supply and Sanitation (WSS) services perpetuates chronic poverty. Extending the human right of access to WSS services to Indigenous peoples represents the final step for many countries of the region to reach universal water coverage.For more information, access the report here: https://openknowledge.worldbank.org/bitstream/handle/10986/25405/110266-WP-Toolkit-Indigenous-Peoples-and-WSS-in-LAC-PUBLIC.pdf?sequence=1&isAllowed=y
