Convergence in access to safe water and adequate sanitation: an analysis across countries and time
by Eric Neumayer
International Journal of Water (IJW), Vol. 1, No. 2, 2001

Abstract: This short note reports that developing countries have tended to converge in terms of percentage of population having access to safe drinking water and adequate sanitation between 1980 and 1993-1996. It suggests that this represents a good message, but no reason for complacency. Enormous efforts are still needed until all people on earth can enjoy access to safe drinking water and adequate sanitation.
