1 in 6 People in the World have no Access to Safe Water


 Did you know this? That 11% of us live without access to water? I did not.




When it comes to safe water, even less people have access: only one in six.

Especially in Africa the access to safe water is limited. As you can see in the picture, there are a lot of nations in which more than every second person has no access to safe water. In Ethiopia it is only 22% of the population.

But also tropical regions like Cambodia or Papua Newguinea are affected. Whereas in Africa in most cases safe water is limited, because water in general is scarce, I could imagine that in South-East-Asia the lack of safe water may be caused by limited technology to clean the water.
