This goal aspires to ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all. Access to water is recognised as a right within the Constitution. Further to this, the government has put in place a policy and strategy on water and sanitation with various governments and UN agencies projects being rolled out on the same.
Lack of sanitation and hygiene undermines progress in other areas of development too, like education and gender equality. Further, this is causing unnecessary diseases and deaths within society with Cholera being the most rampant among all other water and sanitation related diseases.
NANGO members’ works to bring clean water and basic sanitation and hygiene facilities to homes, schools and health centres so that all people can live in a safe environment.
