World Vitals / Safe water, sanitation, and hygiene
Track access to safely managed water, sanitation, hygiene facilities, and surface-water use.
WASH pages should retain service ladder definitions and avoid mixing basic and safely managed access.
Every chart below is backed by the World Vitals metric registry. Live-looking values are marked as estimated rates; annual and snapshot values keep their source year visible.
