Today, over 2 billion people, many of whom are Indigenous, still do not have basic sanitation facilities such as toilets or latrines. Article 21 of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples makes specific reference to adequate sanitation for Indigenous Peoples, but on a global scale much of the world's population are without proper ablution facilities.

Indigenous Peoples and Sanitation: World Toilet Day ([link removed])
World Toilet Day is a day that is commemorated annually on November 19th to tackle the global sanitation crisis. This year's aim is to deliver on Sustainable Development Goal 6, which promises clean water and adequate sanitation for all by the year 2030. Indigenous Peoples are among the most marginalized people in the world. In this program, we will speak to Indigenous folks to find out about their access to clean water and proper sanitation.

Article 21 of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples states:
"Indigenous Peoples have the right, without discrimination, to the improvement of their economic and social conditions, including, inter alia, in the areas of education, employment, vocational training and retraining, housing, SANITATION, health and social security."

Día Mundial Del Retrete ([link removed])
Quizá muchos piensen que se trate de una broma, pero este día tiene mucha seriedad, ya que el retrete o servicio sanitario como muchos lo conocen, es un salvavidas, que evita la transmisión de enfermedades, generando mejores condiciones de salud de los espacios tanto privados como públicos. Quienquiera que sea, esté donde esté, el saneamiento es su derecho humano.
