In recent years, there\u2019s been a lot of talk about the SDGs, the Sustainable Development Goals, adopted at the United Nations Summit in 2015. However, despite their importance, do you have the necessary resources to work on the different SDGs in the classroom? In this post, we\u2019ll provide you with key insights and some resources to introduce SDG 6: Clean Water and Sanitation in the classroom \ud83d\udca7<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ve already talked a lot about the SDGs on our blog. Our latest posts were about SDG 4<\/a> and SDG 5<\/a>. Take a look!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do you know what the SDGs are and what the 17 goals entail?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The SDGs stand for Sustainable Development Goals, a set of 17 objectives adopted by the United Nations in 2015. They are part of the 2030 Agenda and address global challenges such as poverty, climate emergency, and inequality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The list of 17 SDGs to be achieved by 2030 includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. No Poverty<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Zero Hunger<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Good Health and Well-being<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Quality Education<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Gender Equality<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Clean Water and Sanitation<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Affordable and Clean Energy<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. Decent Work and Economic Growth<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  9. Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  10. Reduced Inequalities<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  11. Sustainable Cities and Communities<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  12. Responsible Consumption and Production<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  13. Climate Action<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  14. Life Below Water<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  15. Life on Land<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  16. Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  17. Partnerships for the Goals<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    In 2019, the Decade of Action was launched, urging accelerated progress. While there\u2019s been advancement in some areas, many goals remain unmet. The focus is on action at the global level (countries working together and sharing resources), the local level (active participation of institutions, governments, and local authorities), and the individual level (involving each person, as well as the private sector and trade unions).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What is SDG 6: Clean Water and Sanitation about?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    <\/div>\n\n\n\n

    Even when we were students, the importance of water was a recurring topic. Surely you remember learning about saving water and the struggles faced by countries without access to safe drinking water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This issue has been a global challenge for years. That\u2019s why one of the SDGs included in the 2030 Agenda is SDG 6: Clean Water and Sanitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Access to safe drinking water and sanitation is essential for our health. However, population growth and industrial expansion have led to increased water demand, surpassing population growth rates. This water scarcity has been exacerbated by climate change and rising temperatures, meaning millions of people will lack access to safe and clean water by 2030 unless significant advances are made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    That said, there\u2019s some good news. By 2022, 73% of the global population had access to safely managed drinking water, up 4% from 2015, showing a positive trend. However, significant effort is still needed to ensure universal access to clean water and proper sanitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
