Introduction
Need to build on the momentum of the Haiyan context and Strategic Response Plan (including cluster targets)
Link to WASH Strategic Operations Framework and national WASH strategies in place
WASH in ER and DRR Framework with a strong focus on development already and a strong need to shift mode of delivery from life saving interventions to sustainable development including governance, capacity development, DRR/resilience
Link to the Shelter and Early Recovery Strategy

SRP Strategic Objective 4
Prevent increases in mortality and
morbidity and the outbreak of
communicable diseases through
immediate access to basic water, sanitation, hygiene, and health services.
YOLANDA Situation and Targets
Sanitation Targets by province
Indicator 4.1.2 (sanitation)
Region Province Target Reached % as of Jan 31 as of
Region VI Capiz 75000 900 1.20%
Iloilo 30000 4280 14.27%
Region VII Cebu 50000 0 0.00%
Region VIII Eastern Samar 75000 8440 11.25%
Leyte 370000 37380 10.10%
Samar (Western Samar) 50000 680 1.36%
Totals 650000 51680 7.95% 32%
Some explanations:
• Indicators only reflect new and rehabilitated latrines.
Do not reflect distributions reported.
• Numbers of beneficiaries are number of latrines
constructed/rehabilitated in communities *20 + number
of latrines constructed in ECs*50
• Targets need to be revisited once baseline data is re-
established.
• In Leyte, the affected population together with pre-
Yolanda latrine coverage was used. A 15% general
damage to latrines in Leyte was assumed. The figures
are expected to include the damaged latrines
rehabilitated as well as supply latrines to people
without latrines pre-Yolanda.

National Targets and Goals
2016: NSSP targets • 60% of all barangays declared Zero Open Defecation (ZOD) Areas
• 85% of population will have sanitary toilets
• Half of all municipalities have local sustainable sanitation promotion plans
By 2015: MDG goals of halving those without access Achieving 84% of total households provided with sanitary toilets (from a baseline of 67.6% NSO 1990 data.
2028 universal access (100%) to safe and adequate sanitary facilities
Guiding Principles
Must be equitable, cultural acceptable and gender sensitive.
Philippine Approach to Total Sanitation - PhATS
Nationally agreed upon recovery and development
strategy for promoting universal access to
improved sanitation and hygiene behaviour
focusing on ending the practice of open defecation
by facilitating the change of social norms and
building resilience.
This will be achieved by targeted behavioural
change communication, access to safe drinking
water, WinS, sanitation marketing, solid waste,
wastewater and drainage management in a phased
approach..
General Strategies
Facilitate sanitation planning with target LGUs.
Communication for development
Toilet access
Eliminate open defecation
Build up supply chain
Create demand
Proper Desludging, solid waste management systems
Incentive system
Local ordinance

Open defecation: Human faeces
are disposed of in fields, beaches,
bushes or other open spaces
Unimproved facility: Does not
provide hygienic separation of
faeces from human contact
Shared: Acceptable separation of
faeces from human contact,
shared between 2 or more
households
Improved: Ensures hygienic
separation of excreta from human
contact

Zero Open Defecation
Implementation Strategy PhATS G1: ZOD barangays (no subsidy used; shared toilets) G2: Sustainable sanitation barangays (using targeted subsidies; loans; higher level of service; handwashing) G3: Total sanitation barangays (OBA grants; wider envt’l sanitation; protected WS; water quality testing) Create incentives to continue sanitation development (reward good barangays “pour encourager les autres”)
