Access to safe drinking water
Madagascar is one of the poorest countries in the world with a population growing faster than its economy. Over 11 million people do not have access to safe water.
Only 66% of Madagascar’s people have clean water in their houses and 15% do not have access to that drinkable water . It is said to be that the citizens spend 3 hours to collect and that water is not even safe. Most people die from diseases due to the unsafe water.
