Therefore, there is an increasing need to search for integrated solutions to make development more sustainable. The United Nations has acknowledged the problem and approved the “2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”. On 1st January 2016, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the Agenda officially came into force. These goals cover the three dimensions of sustainable development: economic growth, social inclusion and environmental protection.   The Encyclopedia of the UN Sustainable Development Goals comprehensively addresses the SDGs in an integrated way. It encompasses 17 volumes, each devoted to one of the 17 SDGs. This volume is dedicated to SDG 6 "Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all". Water and sanitation are fundamental to human well-being. Integrated water resources management is essential to ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all and to the realization of Sustainable Development. Concretely, the defined targets are: Achieve universal and equitable access to safe and affordable drinking water for all 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 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 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  Implement integrated water resources management at all levels, including through transboundary cooperation as appropriate Protect and restore water-related ecosystems, including mountains, forests, wetlands, rivers, aquifers and lakes  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 Support and strengthen the participation of local communities in improving Uwater and sanitation management.Encyclopedia of the UN Sustainable Development Goals,2523-7403Sustainable developmentEnvironmental healthWater pollutionSustainable Developmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U34000Water and Healthhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/213000Waste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollutionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U35040Sustainable development.Environmental health.Water pollution.Sustainable Development.Water and Health.Waste Water Technology / Water Pollution Control / Water Management / Aquatic Pollution.338.927Leal Filho Walteredthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtAzul Anabela Marisaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBrandli Lucianaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtLange Salvia Amandaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtWall Tonyedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910736010303321Clean Water and Sanitation2108066UNINA
