📈 New WHO & UNICEF report on inequalities reveal the truth of access to water, sanitation and hygiene challenges that billions of people face everyday. 🙏 Hope remains!! Since 2000, 1.8 billion people have gained access to basic drinking water services. “Closing inequality gaps in the accessibility, quality and availability of water, sanitation and hygiene should be at the heart of government funding and planning strategies. To relent on investment plans for universal coverage is to undermine decades worth of progress at the expense of coming generations,” said Kelly Ann Naylor, Associate Director of Water, Sanitation and Hygiene @ UNICEF. All statistics above are cited from the WHO News Release published on 18 June 2019.
