Focus on Data Quality: The GLAAS strategy for 2023-2030 emphasizes the importance of increasing the quality of data collected and analyzed. Efforts are being made to implement rigorous quality assurance processes, engage with WHO regional and country offices, and utilize the GLAAS data portal to enhance data quality.

Strengthening Monitoring Systems: The GLAAS activities aim to strengthen national monitoring systems for Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) and ensure that decisions by governments and development partners are informed by easily accessible data on WASH systems. This focus is intended to accelerate progress towards universal sustainable access to drinking-water, sanitation, and hygiene by 2030 as part of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Enhanced Data Accessibility and Dissemination: GLAAS has prioritized data accessibility, dissemination, and use during this strategy period. The development of an online, interactive data portal allows users to generate charts, conduct trend analyses, and download data for specific countries, regions, or globally. This initiative aims to improve the usability of GLAAS data and facilitate informed decision-making in the WASH sector.
