  • Editorial
  • Indicators Related to Sustainable Development Goal 6 (SDG6)
  • Overview of SDG 6 in the Countries of Africa Group II
  • A Few Responses at the Global, Regional and Subregional Levels
  • Interview with Mr. Saroj Kumar Jha, Global Director for the World Bank Group’s Water Global Practice

  • The Executive Director’s Conclusion
To achieve universal coverage by 2030 on the African continent, current progress must be three to six times higher. Otherwise, millions of people in our countries will still not have access to safe water, sanitation, and hygiene. In our fragile countries, where the risk of lack of drinking water, sanitation and hygiene is twice higher, this ratio should be multiplied by 23. This is a major collective challenge!
