摘要

水、环境卫生和个人卫生（WASH）是人类健康和发展的基础。可持续发展目标（SDGs）等倡议将饮水、环卫和讲卫生运动的不平等问题推到了发展的前沿。一些国家进行了改革，以确保普及讲卫生运动。以加纳为例，我们追溯了加纳讲卫生运动部门的发展历程，强调了影响当前讲卫生运动部门改革和普及的持续性社会生态和政治经济因素。然后，我们进行了综合评估建模，利用 "国际未来 "模拟法研究了实现可持续发展目标 6 各项具体目标的可行性和影响。我们发现，实现人人享有饮水、环卫和讲卫生服务的更可行途径是优先消除农村和城市贫民窟经常出现的露天排便和使用地表水的现象。

The past, present, and future of Ghana’s WASH sector. An explorative analysis

Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) are fundamental to human health and development. Initiatives like the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) propelled WASH inequities to the forefront of development. Several countries have undergone reforms to ensure universal access to WASH. Using Ghana as a case study, we traced the evolutionary path of Ghana’s WASH sector highlighting persistent socio-ecological and political-economic factors shaping the current WASH sector reforms and access. We then engage in an integrated assessment modelling to examine the viability and implications of achieving targets of SDG 6 using the International Futures simulation. We find a more feasible pathway to achieving universal WASH access should prioritize eradicating open defecation and surface water use often experienced in rural and urban slums.
