The fundamental mission of UNICEF is to promote the rights of every child, everywhere, in everything the organization does — in programs, in advocacy and in operations. The equity strategy, emphasizing the most disadvantaged and excluded children and families, translates this commitment to children’s rights into action. For UNICEF, equity means that all children have an opportunity to survive, develop and reach their full potential, without discrimination, bias or favoritism. To the degree that any child has an unequal chance in life — in its social, political, economic, civic and cultural dimensions — her or his rights are violated. There is growing evidence that investing in the health, education and protection of a society’s most disadvantaged citizens — addressing inequity — not only will give all children the opportunity to fulfill their potential but also will lead to sustained growth and stability of countries. This is why the focus on equity is so vital. It accelerates progress towards realizing the human rights of all children, which is the universal mandate of UNICEF, as outlined by the Convention on the Rights of the Child, while also supporting the equitable development of nations.

L'accès à des services d'assainissement gérés en toute sécurité demeure un défi majeur au Togo, particulièrement dans les
zones rurales et périurbaines où une proportion importante des ménages ne dispose toujours pas de ce niveau de service.
Malgré les progrès enregistrés ces dernières années grâce aux investissements du Gouvernement togolais et de ses
partenaires techniques et financiers, les contraintes financières auxquelles font face les ménages, les petites entreprises
d'assainissement et les institutions financières continuent de limiter les investissements dans le secteur.
Afin de répondre à ces défis, le Gouvernement du Togo, avec l'appui de l'UNICEF et de plusieurs partenaires, a mis en œuvre
un mécanisme pilote de Crédit Latrines reposant sur un fonds renouvelable (Revolving Fund). Ce mécanisme a permis de
faciliter l'accès des ménages vulnérables au financement des ouvrages d'assainissement, tout en renforçant les capacités
des institutions de microfinance et des acteurs privés impliqués dans la chaîne de valeur de l'assainissement.
