Access to Clean Water

Access to clean water means having reliable and safe sources of water necessary for drinking, cooking, and hygiene. It involves infrastructure like pipes, treatment facilities, and community systems that provide water free from harmful contaminants. Adequate access supports health, prevents waterborne diseases, and improves quality of life. While many have easy access, others still face shortages due to geographical, economic, or infrastructural challenges. Ensuring universal access requires investments, good management, and policies that prioritize safe, affordable water for everyone.
