Sustainable Development Goal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation
Sustainable Development Goal 6 (SDG 6) is to ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all. The Joint Monitoring Programme (JMP) of WHO and UNICEF is responsible for monitoring progress to achieve the first two targets of this goal. Important indicators for this goal are the percentages of the population that uses safely managed drinking water, and has access to safely managed sanitation. The JMP reported in 2017 that 4.5 billion people do not have safely managed sanitation. Another indicator looks at the proportion of domestic and industrial wastewater that is safely treated.
The six outcome targets include: Safe and affordable drinking water; end open defecation and provide access to sanitation, and hygiene, improve water quality, wastewater treatment and safe reuse, increase water-use efficiency and ensure freshwater supplies, implement IWRM, protect and restore water-related ecosystems. The two means of implementation targets are to expand water and sanitation support to developing countries, and to support local engagement in water and sanitation management.
