SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS

SDG # 6

Clean Water and Sanitation
Clean water and sanitation aim to provide safe and affordable drinking water for all, end open defecation, and promote good hygiene practices. It also focuses on improving water quality, increasing water efficiency, and protecting water-related ecosystems like rivers, lakes, and wetlands. LPU-Laguna believes that it is crucial for human well-being, economic growth, and environmental sustainability. By taking these steps, the institution can help shape a future where everyone has access to clean water and proper sanitation, and where the planet’s precious water resources are protected for generations to come.

Target Indicators

6.1 By 2030, achieve universal and equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water for all

6.2 By 2030, achieve access to adequate and equitable sanitation and hygiene for all and end open defecation, paying special attention to the needs of women and girls and those in vulnerable situations

6.3 By 2030, improve water quality by reducing pollution, eliminating dumping and minimizing release of hazardous chemicals and materials, halving the proportion of untreated wastewater and substantially increasing recycling and safe reuse globally

6.4 By 2030, substantially increase water-use efficiency across all sectors and ensure sustainable withdrawals and supply of freshwater to address water scarcity and substantially reduce the number of people suffering from water scarcity

6.5 By 2030, implement integrated water resources management at all levels, including through transboundary cooperation as appropriate

6.6 By 2020, protect and restore water-related ecosystems, including mountains, forests, wetlands, rivers, aquifers and lakes

6.A By 2030, expand international cooperation and capacity-building support to developing countries in water- and sanitation-related activities and programmes, including water harvesting, desalination, water efficiency, wastewater treatment, recycling and reuse technologies

6.B Support and strengthen the participation of local communities in improving water and sanitation management
