One-Page Summary: The Case for Household Water Treatment
Recent reports from the World Health Organization (WHO), the WHO-UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme (JMP), and United Nations (UN) Water show that safely managed drinking water is not on track globally to achieve Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6.1: universal access to safely managed drinking water.
Water quality often declines between source and consumption due to contamination during transport, storage, and handling.
Drawing on these reports, this one-page summarizes an evidence brief and highlights household water treatment and safe storage (HWTS) as a proven, complementary approach to protecting drinking water quality at the point of use.
