IN the United Nations World Water Development Report 2023, published by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization or Unesco in March 2023, about 2 billion people in the world did not have access to safe drinking water and 3.6 billion lacked access to safely managed sanitation.

In the Philippines, a survey by the Social Weather Stations in December 2022 revealed that only 67 percent or an estimated 17 million Filipino households had access to running or piped water.
