A lack of access to water, sanitation and hygiene is affecting communities across the globe, and WaterAid’s goal is to reach each and every one of them. We aim to create long lasting change on a global scale, using local expertise.
WaterAid works in more than 30 countries to change the lives of the poorest and most marginalised people. This work is grounded in a commitment to achieve Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) six: Ensuring access to water and sanitation for all. We believe this goal is a crucial precursor to achieving many of the other goals set out in the United Nations’ development agenda. As a global organisation, we work towards this goal collaboratively to maximise collective impact.
The figures below refer to the people WaterAid has directly reached as a federation internationally through services delivered together with our partners. They only show part of our impact.
To make lasting change happen on a massive scale, we also convince governments to change laws; link policy makers with people on the ground; change attitudes and behaviours; pool knowledge and resources; and rally support from people and organisations around the world. Through this work we benefit many more people than those shown below.
Globally, between 1 April 2022 - 31 March 2023, WaterAid reached:

Access to clean water
413,000 household members, 154,000 school students and 2,194,000 patients in healthcare facilities
Improved hygiene
1,805,000 household members, 1,036,000 school students and 1,868,000 patients in healthcare facilities
Improved sanitation
129,000 household members, 135,000 school students and 1,612,000 patients in healthcare facilities
