WASH in Tanzanian Birth Settings

WaterAid/Tara Todras-Whitehill

About

The third in a series of five SHARE-funded studies, this LSHTM-led case study used existing data sources – the Tanzania 2010 Demographic Health Survey and the 2006 Service Provision Assessment – to assess WASH coverage in home and facility birth settings in Tanzania. 

It found that less than one-third of all births in Tanzania took place in a water and sanitation-safe environment (Benova et al., 2014).
