Goal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation

Goal 6: Ensure access to water and sanitation for all 

Having access to clean water is one of the most important parts of basic survival. The planet contains enough fresh water to sustain our population but poor infrastructure and economics result in millions of people who die from diseases as a result of poor water supplies, sanitation and hygine.

The UN estimates that:
By 2050, at least one in four people is likely to live in a country affected by chronic or recurring shortages of fresh water.  Isa Mundo Foundation and its partners have supported rain water collection system projects in Latin America and will continue to work with communities in the future to improve access to clean water.
