3. Sustainable Development Goals 17 goals and 169 indicators agreed upon by all UN member states to achieve a better and more sustainable future.

4. Goal 6 - Clean Water and Sanitation Global Objectives 6.1 Ensure universal and equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water for all by 2030. 6.2 Achieve access to adequate and equitable sanitation and hygiene for all by 2030 and eliminate open defecation, with a special focus on women and girls, Also for the needs of people in vulnerable situations. 6.3 Implementation of integrated water resources management at all levels by 2030, including, within capacity, through transboundary cooperation.

5. Water supply, sanitation and hygiene – these three main areas are interconnected, therefore, they are included in one growing field, despite the fact that each of them is a separate field of activity. For example, without toilets, the water will be polluted, and without clean water, elementary hygiene procedures are unthinkable. Contaminated water provokes various diseases and accelerates aging by 30%. 1.1 billion people do not have access to clean water and 2.4 billion people live in inadequate sanitation . 200 million school-aged children are infected with parasites and trematodes (worms). Water and sanitation-related diseases in children cause physical and mental retardation, which affects the child's ability to learn. Due to poor or non-existent sanitation problems, girls cannot attend schools.

6. The organization Water Aid published a study, as a result of which experts calculated how much water costs in different countries, and it turned out that around the world there are about 650 million people who do not have access to clean water at all. In comparison, for example, in a developed country like Great Britain, people spend about 0.1% of their income on water, and in a poor country, in order to get at least the minimum norm of water, they spend half of their income on it.

7. What does the human right to water, sanitation and hygiene mean? The human right to water means the right of every person to have access to sufficient quantity, safe, appropriate quality, physically and economically available water for personal and domestic needs. "Sufficient, safe, acceptable/appropriate, physically and economically available water for personal and household needs". .

8. What is the importance of clean water ? Our lives, our economy depend on clean water: manufacturing, agriculture, tourism, recreation, energy production and other economic sectors require clean water to function and thrive.

9. Adequate water and sanitation are fundamental to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, including good health and gender equality. By managing our water sustainably, we can also better manage food and energy production and contribute to decent work and economic growth.

10. Where there is water, there is life! "Water is the lifeblood of our bodies, our economy, our nation and our well-being." "Water is the driving force of all nature." "If there is magic on this planet, it contains water."

11. Bringing water to people is the first step towards a dignified human life and a giant leap towards overcoming poverty!
