Advocacy for access to drinking water in rural areas of Chad

Providing clean water to citizens is one of the major challenges facing African governments. The issue of access to safe drinking water is well described and prioritized in various policy documents, strategy papers, declarations and conventions at national, continental and international levels. However, it is still unclear whether sustainable access to safe drinking water has received the financial and other support from policy makers and donors in Sub-Saharan Africa. In Chad, the supply of drinking water in rural areas is a major problem for the population. Indeed, the drinking water situation is still characterized by relatively low access rates and difficult access to this resource in certain areas of the country (base areas). This is why, in order to highlight the problem of drinking water in rural areas in Chad, we have formulated the title of our book as follows: "Advocacy for access to drinking water in rural areas in Chad", which, for us, is an opportunity to highlight this problem.
