17:07 - Conclusion: Embracing the Curves of Progress
This paper evaluates global progress in drinking water and sanitation access during the MDG period, using Generalized Additive Models (GAMs) to analyze non-linear country-level trajectories, unlike the traditional linear regression. The study reveals varied patterns (acceleration, deceleration, saturation), indicating non-linear trends are common and offer a more accurate understanding of progress. This diverse trajectory characterization can help policymakers effectively allocate resources and address specific country needs for SDG transition.
I hold a BSME and an MSME, and I am a Water Engineer by practice, trade, and research. Check out my article here:

All the data I'm sharing comes directly from a peer-reviewed manuscript. For this educational review, I'm using brief quotations of the core findings—a common practice in articles and broadcasts. Of course, the source is linked for you below.
