The relationship of SDG 6 with other SDGs

Description

Under Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6, governments are committed to targets for clean water and sanitation by 2030, including universal and equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water, sanitation and hygiene. Since SDG 6 is also linked with the other goals, its success will contribute towards their success. The fact that water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) is the subject of dedicated targets within SDG 6 is testament to its fundamental role in public health and therefore in the future of sustainable development.
