Water and Sanitation

  • Dirty water kills 5 million people a year
  • The average distance women in Africa walk to collect water is 6 km

Inadequate water, wells, sanitation and hygiene not only cause sickness and death, as shortages in water can lead to harvest failures and even famine. All these factors combine together to contribute to the continuing cycle of poverty in developing countries

Islamic Relief's water & sanitation activities include:
  • Building water supply systems in deprived areas
  • Digging and restoring water wells
  • Implementing water purification projects
  • Undertaking integrated sanitation programmes
  • Community mobilisation and awareness programmes
