Mozambique Targets 60% Rural Water and Sanitation Coverage by 2036

The initiative aims to improve access to clean water and proper sanitation facilities in rural areas, where coverage currently lags behind urban centers. The plan prioritizes regions with the most significant deficits, with the goal of reducing waterborne diseases and improving public health outcomes. The government will work with local authorities and international partners to implement the program, which includes building new water points, promoting hygiene education, and upgrading existing infrastructure.
