Since its Water Sector Development Program (WSDP) got underway in 2006, Tanzania has made significant progress improving the access of thousands of citizens like Mama Kashilila to water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services. Against a backdrop of low coverage and slow progress in the sector during the Millennium Development Goals era, which ended in 2015, the country has renewed its commitment to expanding access for its population by fully adopting the ambitious Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) sector targets, which the UN has set for 2030.

The National Panel Survey (NPS) 2020/2021, released in January 2023, shows that since the NPS 2014/2015, four in every 10 households have gained access to improved sanitation (up from two-and-half households), and half the population now has access to clean water in the rainy season and two-thirds during the dry seasons.

Based on a global analysis conducted by the International Water Association, universal access to adequate water supply and sanitation services could also create an estimated 24,000 skilled jobs, in addition to the jobs created during initial, construction-related work. Many of these jobs would be professional and permanent positions, necessary for the operations and maintenance of WASH infrastructure and services. The jobs would, in turn, contribute to the livelihood of millions of people.

Only 61% of households in Tanzania currently have access to a basic water-supply, 32% have access to basic sanitation, and 48% have access to basic hygiene, according to SDG definitions. Tanzania has had to contend with death and disease as immediate consequences of this , with the burden falling heaviest on women, children, and the poor and vulnerable. The estimated 31,000 deaths each year due to inadequate WASH services are over 10% of preventable deaths in Tanzania, and cost the economy more than $2.4 billion each year in excess medical costs and lost productivity.

Some costs, however, are less obvious than others: The report discusses how inadequate sanitation greatly increases the rate of hospital-acquired infections, which in turn discourage patients from seeking care and result in increased morbidity and mortality from other causes.

When you select a category on the left side of the VoiceOver Utility window, the options available to you appear on the right side. Some categories have options organized into panes, which are listed across the top of the right side. You can navigate among the categories and panes using a mouse, the cursor keys, the View menu, or keyboard shortcuts. A menu bar provides access to commands for exporting and importing preferences, setting up portable preferences, and resetting all or some preferences to their default settings.Each category or pane contains a Help button in the lower-right corner of the window. Click the button to open a page in VoiceOver online help that explains each option in that category or pane.

In West and Central Africa, only three countries are on track to give every one of their people access to electricity by 2030. At this slow pace, 263 million people in the region will be left without electricity in ten years. West Africa has one of the lowest rates of electricity access in the world; only about 42% of the total population, and 8% of rural residents, have access to electricity.

Improving the performance of national utilities and greening their power generation mix is a prerequisite to lowering the costs of supply, thus expanding electricity access to those currently unelectrified, usually lower-income and often remote households.

Third, electrification efforts need to be open to private sector investments and innovations, such as solar energy and battery storage, which have made a tremendous impact in enabling access for millions of poor and underserved households. Specifically, off-grid solar systems and mini-grids have become a proven reliable way to provide affordable modern electricity services, powering homes in rural communities, healthcare facilities, and schools.

Last, achieving universal electricity access will involve significant commitment from political leaders, especially developing policies and regulations that can attract high-quality investments.

Over the last 3 years, the World Bank has doubled its investments to increase electricity access rates in Central and West Africa. We have committed more than $7.8 billion to support 40 electricity access programs, of which more than half directly support new electricity connections. These operations are expected to provide access to 16 million people. The aim is to increase electricity access rates in West and Central Africa from 50 percent today to 64 percent by 2026.

This is vital as less than a decade remains to reach the 2030 SDG7 goal of ensuring universal access to affordable, reliable, and modern energy services. As headlines worldwide focus on soaring energy prices in the developed world, we cannot lose sight of the vast populations in Africa that still cannot access basic energy services. This is the true global energy crisis.

Whether or not JavaScript running in the context of a file scheme URLshould be allowed to access content from any origin. By default, whensomething is loaded in a WebKitWebView using a file scheme URL,access to the local file system and arbitrary local storage is notallowed. This setting allows you to change that behaviour, so thatit would be possible to use local storage, for example.

To configure accessibility features, open the respective settings dialog by right-clicking the desktop and choosing Settings and then Universal Access. Each assistive feature can be enabled separately using this dialog.

Repeat Keys lets you configure if and when a key is repeated when it is pressed for a longer time. You can either turn this feature Off or configure a Delay and the Speed by which keys are repeated.

Turn on Hover Click to trigger a click by hovering your mouse pointer over an object on the screen. This is useful if you find it difficult to move the mouse and click at the same time. If this feature is turned on, a small Hover Click window opens and stays above all of your other windows. You can use this to choose what sort of click should happen when you hover. When you hover your mouse pointer over a button and do not move it, the pointer gradually changes color. When it has fully changed color, the button will be clicked.

the next time you login: on the login screen, click the symbol for 'universal access', then set the 'screen keyboard' to 'off', more importantly, also set the "Sticky keys" to 'off'. (It is possible this "Sticky key" defaults to "on", preventing one to input from keyboard. I also set the "Slow keys" to 'off'. After that, whether the virtual keyboard appears or not is no longer an issue, since input via keyboard can now be accepted --the desired feature. Not sure why the default setting was for not-accepting keyboard input, maybe there is a reason for other users.)

The icon disappears in case that the user switches off all of the provided options from the Universal Access Menu. Missing icon can cause difficulties to users with a visual impairment. System administrators can prevent the inaccessibility of the icon by switching on the Always Show Universal Access Menu. When the Always Show Universal Access Menu is switched on, the icon is displayed on the top bar even in the situation when all options from this menu are switched off.

The WHO has released two new tools offering evidence-based strategies to support the effective and efficient integration of sexual reproductive health (SRH) services within national primary health care (PHC) strategies to advance progress towards universal health coverage (UHC).

The first tool is a handbook Critical considerations for achieving universal access to sexual and reproductive health in the context of universal health coverage through a primary health care approach. The contents cover guidance for the inclusion of comprehensive SRH services in health benefit packages, planning and implementation of integrated packages of SRH services, as well as accountability processes and measures for ensuring universal access to all essential SRH services.

Both the Handbook and LSP emphasize that progress towards universal access to SRH services depends on the meaningful participation of the people affected by these policies in every aspect of planning, implementation, monitoring and accountability.

Listening and responding to the voices of those most left behind is essential and mechanisms to enable participation and voice must be integral to all national efforts. Acting together, everyone concerned with achieving universal access to SRH services through strengthened PHC systems can benefit from the evidence and lessons documented in these tools.
