Vision and Mission

Vision

The fundamental goal of the Japan Sanitation Consortium (JSC) is to ensure safe and comfortable living environments for people in the Asia-Pacific region while contributing to environmental conservation.

The JSC aims to provide countries facing sanitation challenges with information on concrete initiatives and capacity building. Through the exchange of information, knowledge, and technical expertise, as well as discussion, the JSC seeks to improve sustainable sanitation systems through optimal policies and appropriate management systems.

Furthermore, the JSC aims to reduce and ultimately eradicate the social, economic, and gender-based discrimination resulting from a lack of access to adequate sanitation facilities.

Mission

Weak policies, limited capacity, and a lack of investment in sanitation have led to severe water pollution and waterborne diseases, threatening public health. JSC believes that sanitation problems stem not only from a lack of information and knowledge sharing but also from fragmented operations that prevent internal information exchange.

For these reasons, JSC aims to quickly establish an international network for collecting information on sanitation and actively sharing knowledge and experience.

We at JSC seek to raise awareness of the importance of sanitation through the promotion and dissemination of best practices, and to ensure that this issue is elevated to a higher priority on the policy agenda.
