Global Water and Sanitation Initiative 2005 - 2015 IFRC initiative launched in 2005 to meet MDGSs through longer term WatSan programming How: scaling up existing capacities Achievements: Since 2005, 75 Red Cross Red Crescent NSs have undertaken over 300 development projects in 60 countries; Estimated 8.5 million beneficiaries served so far; Funding so far will serve 11.5 M – so we have trebled the original target from 5 to 15 million by 2015; Annually, on average serving about 1.5 to 2 M people with safe water; sanitation and hygiene promotion in the development context; and GWSI to continue for a further 10 to 15 years at least. SEA target 600,000 beneficiaries to 2015 Background on GWSI

Scaling up Sanitation to 2015 SEA: Indonesia follows as second Indonesia figures are very bad as well 2,5 billion people in the world lack access to adequate sanitation , including 1.1 billion people who have no sanitation facilities at all ( 15 per cent of the worlds total population) 2.6 billion people don't have access to sanitation That's nearly half of the world's population! We alone can’t fight this situation, but if you join us in this movement, its possible. Each of you can be a change agent by contributing your time, talent, skills and commitment to make it happen. The largest number of people still practicing open defecation in the world is in India, with 54% of the total (632 million in total) out of which most are living in the rural area (approximately 575 million people). Rural India accounts for approximately 60% of the global rural population that defecates in the open.

In addition to resource management, there are two other modules that can be accessed from RMS: Assessments and Projects. In assessments, users are able to add new field assessments through their web browsers or batch import assessments added to Excel spreadsheets. Place of assessments together with its accompanying information can be tagged on map. Projects provides possibility to save and track key project information like the location, amount of beneficiaries reached, donor, funding, etc. It is not however a project management tool nor will become one. Rather one is able to see where different projects are run at and find and extract key information for e.g. reporting purposes.
