Problem
Clean water and sanitation are important for the well-being of people and the planet. Yet
millions of people worldwide still have easy access to safe drinking water and appropriate
sanitation. This leads to sickness, poverty and environmental problems. Clean water is a
basic human right, and it is crucial for preventing disease and promoting healthy
communities. Sanitation is equally important as it prevents the spread of germs and protects
the environment. Global efforts to improve access to clean water and sanitation are primary
to ensure a more sustainable, healthier future for all.
