The aim of this chapter is to present the overall progress that has been achieved by Arab countries towards the water and sanitation MDG target. The analysis presented in this chapter is based on the latest JMP 2011 data set released in March 2013. Given that the JMP 2013 update does not report on access to water sources and sanitation facilities in a fully disaggregated manner, additional information is also provided in an effort to complete the picture of progress made in Arab countries, namely: access to “public standpipe” and “tanker truck” water sources, and access to toilets that are connected to “piped sewer systems”. By highlighting some specificities of the Arab region, it becomes apparent of the need for additional serviceoriented indicators to complement JMP basic indicators and to clarify the level and quality of water and sanitation services. This is discussed in the later sections of the chapter.
