Sanitation refers to the provision of facilities and services for the safe management and disposal of human urine and feces, solid waste, wastewater, and stormwater, along with the maintenance of hygienic conditions through services such as garbage collection, drainage, and waste treatment. It includes access to toilets, proper sewage systems, safe drinking water, waste disposal mechanisms, and hygiene practices such as handwashing. Sanitation is not limited to infrastructure; it also involves behavioral practices, community awareness, and institutional arrangements that ensure a clean and healthy environment. In the context of population and development, sanitation is a crucial determinant of public health, human dignity, productivity, and social equity.
