Goal 6 aims to ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all. Water and sanitation are critical to the health of people and the planet. 

Goal 6 not only addresses the issues relating to drinking water, sanitation and hygiene, but also the quality and sustainability of water resources worldwide. Improvements in drinking water, sanitation and hygiene are essential for progress in other areas of development too, such as nutrition, education, health and gender equality.

Millions of people die every year from diseases associated with unsafe drinking water, sanitation and hygiene. Young children are particularly vulnerable. 

Related diseases remain among the leading causes of death in children under 5, and they contribute to malnutrition and stunting. Each year, 300,000 children under 5 die due to diarrhoea linked to inadequate WASH. 

Despite significant progress, 2.2 billion people worldwide do not have safely managed drinking water services. Over half the global population, 4.2 billion people, lack safely managed sanitation services.

Sustainable management of water resources and access to safe water and sanitation are essential for unlocking economic growth and productivity, and provide significant leverage for existing investments in health and education. 

The natural environment e.g. forests, soils and wetlands contributes to management and regulation of water availability and water quality, strengthening the resilience of watersheds and complementing investments in physical infrastructure and institutional and regulatory arrangements for water access, use and disaster preparedness. 

Water shortages undercut food security and the incomes of rural farmers while improving water management makes national economies, the agriculture and food sectors more resilient to rainfall variability and able to fulfil the needs of growing population. Pro

  NGO: Malala Fund 

 

The Malala Fund is a non-profit organization working to ensure that all girls have access to 12 years of free, quality education.This week, they focus on quality education for young girls. 

  

A new blog post, Annistere MBARGA, writes,

The place of women in the changes and challenges facing the world is becoming crucial, as women have demonstrated their power and know-how in all fields. An education that is open to all young girls will strengthen their ability to respond to the future challenges facing the world, and my female communities. 

  The Malala Fund calls for the different branches of study and learning disciplines to be opened up to all girls, for greater versatility and development of women's skills.

Good health and well-being

                                                           Good health and well-being 

  NGO Médecins Sans Frontières 

  Médecins Sans Frontières is an international medical humanitarian organization that provides emergency aid to people affected by conflicts, natural disasters and epidemics.This week, they highlight multidimensional medicine. 

 

A new blog post, Annistere MBARGA,  writes,

 

The inability of some patients to find solutions in public and international hospitals has prompted Médecins Sans Frontières to question the absence of traditional or cultural medicines endogenous to different societies in the medicinal uses of modern hospitals. 

  Médecins sans Frontières calls on governments to take into account the endogenous knowledge of different societies and link it to modern health knowledge to improve the curability of patients and their families suffering.

Hunger is the distress associated with lack of food - Ezekiel OSINACHI & Digital Bimpe

The threshold for food deprivation, or undernourishment, is fewer than 1,800 calories per day. 

It is also the period when people experience severe food insecurity — meaning that they go for entire days without eating due to lack of money, access to food, or other resources. 

Hunger is the leading cause of death in the world. Our planet has provided us with tremendous resources, but unequal access and inefficient handling leaves millions of people malnourished. 

If we promote sustainable agriculture with modern technologies and fair distribution systems, we can sustain the whole world’s population and make sure that nobody will ever suffer from hunger again.

Zero hunger

                                                Zero Hunger 

  NGO: Action Against Hunger 

 

Action Against Hunger is a global humanitarian organization working to save lives and prevent hunger.This week, it is focusing on the proper management of food by populations. 

 A new blog post, Annistere MBARGA, writes :

Two documentaries show the impact of our actions on the lives of others, as they struggle to feed themselves and find food. Indeed, food waste, whether cooked or uncooked, is a reality in developed countries, while in developing countries it is becoming palpable, leading to a general lack of awareness on the part of people in wealthy neighborhoods of the situation facing those in underprivileged areas. 

  Action contre la Faim calls for continuous and permanent awareness-raising on the importance of good food management. Particularly in developing countries, community restaurants and community refrigerators should be set up to provide street children and the homeless with food on a daily basis. 

Food security

NGO :  The Hunger Project 

 

The Hunger Project is a global non-profit organization working to end hunger and poverty in rural Africa.This week, it is focusing on the issue of food security, which is crucial to MDG 1. 

a new blog post, Annistere MBARGA, writes: 

  "Food security is everyone's business, especially a real phenomenon in Africa, where living conditions are still precarious and the means of resolving them very limited, and thus unable to enable all populations to benefit.The people of northern Cameroon are particularly hard hit by this situation, where they are forced to consume unfiltered water and unprocessed, unfit-for-consumption food, often as a result of climatic difficulties, leading to serious food insecurity."

The Project is calling on governments and donors to invest in programs that strengthen the nutritional capacities of populations in disadvantaged and hard-hit areas, and above all to raise global awareness of the importance of proper management of food before consumption or intended for consumption.
