Vital for people, planet and prosperity, water and sanitation are in the focus of the new Sustainable Development Goal on water and sanitation (SDG 6) of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
Based on the global indicator framework developed by the country-led Interagency and Expert Group on Sustainable Development Goal Indicators (IAEGSDGs), the Integrated Monitoring Guide assists national governments in monitoring progress towards SDG 6.

A current version of the indicator, developed i.a. by Philipp Saile and Dmytro Lisniak from the UN Environment GEMS/Water Data Centre at the ICWRGC, is available here:
