Example for the systems approach of<unk> : Single Pit System (Compendium of<unk>  Systems and Technologies) Comparison with "improved<unk> " The Joint Monitoring Programme for Water Supply and<unk>  (JMP) of the WHO (World Health Organization) and UNICEF (United Nations Children's Fund) was responsible for monitoring progress towards the Millennium Development Goal for drinking water and<unk> . For reasons of simplicity—being able to monitor the<unk>  situation with household surveys—the JMP had to find a simple differentiation between "improved"<unk>  (toilets that count towards the MDG goals) and "unimproved"<unk>  (toilets that do not count towards the MDG goals). According to the JMP definition, improved<unk>  facilities include facilities which are: * not shared or public; and * which are one of the following toilet types: flush or pour-flush to piped sewer system, septic tank or pit latrine, ventilated improved pit latrine, pit latrine with slab or a composting toilet. Unimproved<unk>  facilities according to the JMP include: * flush or pour-flush to elsewhere (waste is flushed to the street, yard or plot, open sewer, a ditch, a drainage way or other location) * pit latrine without slab or open pit; * bucket toilet; hanging toilet or hanging latrine, or no facilities or bush or field (open defecation). In some circumstances "improved"<unk>  facilities can be regarded as not<unk> , whereas in other circumstances "unimproved"<unk>  facilities can be regarded as<unk> . This is because it depends on the<unk>  system, of which the toilet is only one part. For example, a pit latrine with a slab can become unsustainable<unk>  if it is polluting the groundwater or if the waste sludge that is removed from the pit latrine is dumped into the environment. A bucket toilet can become<unk>  if the collection, treatment and reuse or disposal of waste is taken care of in a safe manner, for example with the urine-diverting dry toilets that SOIL is employing in Haiti. Comparison with ecosan<unk> , defined with the five sustainability measures, may or may not have an focus on reuse of excreta, because the criterion of "protecting the natural resources" is only one of several that need to be aimed towards. In comparison, ecological<unk>  (ecosan) has a strong focus on the reuse of waste. The term is widely used since about 2009.
