By working together, different actors could be champions for different pillars of sustainability to improve both policy and practice. When writing policy, vague catch-all terms like “for all” should be avoided as they are open to interpretation (10/x)

Environmental sustainability tended to mean recycling, economic sustainability tended to mean operating in a way where costs were covered without external donor support, and social sustainability tended to mean community ownership. (9/x)

Less visible categorisations (like people with mental rather than physical health challenges) or groups without legal status (LGBTQIA+ in some countries, or those without land tenure) continue to be overlooked in these definitions. (6/x)

When pushed they didn’t all agree on who was at risk of being left behind though. Disabled people, women, children, and the poor were often mentioned as needing special attention, especially when local adopted policies or guidelines named these groups. (5/x)

In 60% of cases people interpreted it as inclusive of different groups that should benefit from sanitation services and lots of people liked SDG-inspired phrases to describe inclusivity like “leave no-one behind” (4/x)

Our advice? Ask for details of what they mean when people use words like “inclusive” or “sustainable”, and get the whole paper here: doi.org/10.1177/117863… (11/x)

Last, but by no means least, it was a real pleasure to work with @LuweKho on his first first-author paper, and the rest of the amazing study team who made this a reality despite several moves across 8 countries during the course of this work! (12/12)

Ever wondered what exactly people mean when they say something like sanitation must be sustainable or inclusive? We did… So in our latest paper, we thought we’d find out… 🧵(1/x) with @LuweKho @nyanitm
