Published on by

Official United Nations figures claim that 2.5 billion people lack access to adequate sanitation. But new research from the University of North Carolina puts the total at more than 4.1 billion people.

I am afraid that the actual figures are far more than what both the agencies are saying. Whats your take on this?

  1. Sara, I never believe in figurers. Ground trues are always different. WASH is attacking so much of attention and getting good funding. But I am sure that in-spite of good work the people who dont have access to clean water and sanitation is far bigger than what these both agencies are saying.
