Priority areas are identified using local coefficients estimated through Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR), which measures the spatially varying relationship between access to sanitation and four nutrition indicators among children under five: stunting, wasting, severe wasting, and underweight.

The tool highlights locations where the local association between sanitation access and the selected nutrition indicator is both negative and statistically significant. In this application, priority areas are further restricted to locations where sanitation access is below 80%, ensuring that the results remain relevant for policy intervention.

The identified areas are classified as having strong, moderate, or mild associations according to the magnitude of the local GWR coefficient. This classification helps users determine the appropriate intensity of intervention. The spatially varying coefficients therefore allow users to identify areas where limited sanitation access is most strongly associated with poorer child nutrition outcomes, supporting targeted interventions, programme planning and place-based development strategies.

This layer shows the percentage of people with access to any improved sanitation facility, including both piped systems (such as sewer or septic tanks) and non-piped improved options (like ventilated improved pit latrines or composting toilets), in 2017. Improved sanitation is essential for public health, reducing the spread of waterborne diseases and supporting safe and dignified living conditions. Areas with low access highlight the need for expanded basic services and targeted investments in infrastructure.

Priority areas are identified using local coefficients estimated through Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR), which measures the spatially varying relationship between access to sanitation infrastructure and education using the indicator of percentage of population with secondary education . The tool highlights locations where the local association between electricity access and the selected nutrition indicator is both negative and statistically significant. The identified areas are classified as having strong, moderate, or mild associations according to the magnitude of the local GWR coefficient. This classification helps users determine the appropriate intensity of intervention. The spatially varying coefficients therefore allow users to identify areas where limited sanitation access is most strongly associated with lower education, supporting targeted interventions, programme planning, and place-based development strategies.

Priority areas are identified using local coefficients estimated through Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR), which measures the spatially varying relationship between access to sanitation infrastructure and gender using the indicator of percentage of women with secondary education. The tool highlights locations where the local association between sanitation access and the selected gender indicator is both negative and statistically significant. The identified areas are classified as having strong, moderate, or mild associations according to the magnitude of the local GWR coefficient. This classification helps users determine the appropriate intensity of intervention. The spatially varying coefficients therefore allow users to identify areas where limited sanitation access is most strongly associated with lower women education, supporting targeted interventions, programme planning, and place-based development strategies.

Priority areas are identified using local coefficients estimated through Geographically Weighted Regression (GWR), which measures the spatially varying relationship between access to sanitation infrastructure and health using the indicator of under 5 mortality. The tool highlights locations where the local association between sanitation access and the selected gender indicator is both negative and statistically significant. The identified areas are classified as having strong, moderate, or mild associations according to the magnitude of the local GWR coefficient. This classification helps users determine the appropriate intensity of intervention. The spatially varying coefficients therefore allow users to identify areas where limited sanitation access is most strongly associated with higher child mortality, supporting targeted interventions, programme planning, and place-based development strategies.
