The share of people who have a toilet of their own and whose wastewater is safely disposed of.
The ranking uses the latest available value for each country — the year is shown in the row. The table spans 2016 to 2024.
Top-20 · % of population
The scale does not start at zero — the values lie in a narrow range, and starting from zero the bars would be indistinguishable. The axis ticks are labeled.

The share of the population with safely managed sanitation — the top rung of the WHO and UNICEF ladder. Having a separate toilet is not enough: the waste must either be treated on the spot or removed and treated elsewhere. It is the second condition that makes the indicator far more demanding than basic sanitation: in many large cities almost everyone has a toilet, but there are no treatment facilities for the whole volume of wastewater, and by this measure a country turns out to be noticeably lower.
Important: It accounts not only for the presence of a toilet but also for the fate of the wastewater, so the values are substantially lower than those of basic sanitation.
The share of the population with access to improved sanitation and hygiene conditions.
Nutrition 2000–2024 Safely managed drinking waterThe share of people who have water at home, available round the clock and free of contamination.
Nutrition 2000–2024 Handwashing facilitiesThe share of people who have a place at home for washing hands with water and soap.
Mortality 2019–2019 Death rate from unsafe water and sanitationHow many deaths per 100,000 people are linked to dirty water and to the absence of sanitation and hygiene.
