As the year 2000 is fast getting close, one wonders whether, with the present coverage levels in sanitation, the goal of Health for All would be attained. The Global Coverage Levels have been looked at and the situation in Ghana has been likened to this situation. A Kumasi Sanitation Project has been studied and some lessons learned are highlighted. A warning signal has been given to the Accra Healthy Cities Project. A few major issues to consider for a successful sanitation project have been listed in the conclusion of this paper.
