Government of Nepal formulated the National Sanitation and Hygiene Master Plan in 2011 to set up appropriate systems and institutional mechanisms for accelerating sanitation coverage in a planned and coordinated manner. As a result, ODF campaigns are moving ahead throughout the country with local authorities’ leadership; all stakeholders’ partnership and community ownership. As a result, till 2015, 31 Districts, more than 25.000 VDCs, and more than 79 Municipalities have achieved ODF status and the process is gaining momentum. The government estimates that 81% of Nepalese households now have toilets. While the progress in access to sanitation and ODF declarations is encouraging, the country still faces many challenges as it aims to reach the national target of 100% sanitation coverage by 2017.
