The right to water and sanitation entitles everyone to have access to sufficient, safe, acceptable, physically accessible, and affordable water for personal and domestic use. In 2010, the UN General Assembly and the Human Rights Council recognized clean drinking water and safe sanitation to be human rights, essential to the full enjoyment of life and all other human rights. Additionally, Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6.1 aims to “achieve universal and equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water for all” by 2030. The rights to water and sanitation are essential for eradicating poverty, building peaceful and prosperous societies, and ensuring that “no one is left behind” on the road toward sustainable development.
