valuable insight and a more realistic baseline for the SDG target of
eliminating open defecation. 67% of households use non-improved sanitation
facilities and 11% of households have unpredictable access to a regular source

Goal 13 Climate action Climate change linked to poverty gender and equality
The importance of the relationship between the climate and human wellbeing
and poverty is now so clear and has increasingly gained attention in the
sustainability, environmental and development sectors.
Indicator 1: The recognition of the relevance of the climate for human
wellbeing has been influential in mainstream international development
policies and poverty alleviation strategies, which often neglect the
environment. This neglect is manifested in how poverty is defined and
measured, and how environmental drivers and impacts of development
strategies are considered in project design, implementation and evaluation.
Despite the recognition of the importance of the social aspects of conservation
problems continue to arise around local rights and benefit sharing of
conservation projects. Maintaining the status quo in separating human
wellbeing and environmental sustainability, and in failing to change
governance and to pay attention to trade-
