UN Sustainable Development Goal 6

SDG 6 is aiming to ensure universal access to safe drinking water and sanitation and hygiene facilities, and to ensure the quality and sustainability of these facilities. 663 million people today live without access to an improved water source such as a borehole, most whom live in sub-Saharan Africa. Furthermore, close to 2 billion people drink water daily that may be contaminated by faecal matter, because not all improved water sources can be considered safe.
