Every year at the High-level Political Forum, an annual theme helps an increased focus along with an in-depth review of a selection of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In 2018, SDG 6 on water and sanitation is one of the goals to be reviewed. To provide input to Member States on this goal, UN-Water has produced the SDG 6 Synthesis Report 2018 on Water and Sanitation. This represents a joint position from the UN family on the global status on SDG 6 and other water-related targets. The report also explores the linkages within SDG 6 targets and the interlinkages between SDG 6 and the other targets and indicators. The report builds on the baseline data on SDG 6 global indicators coming from JMP, GEMI and GLAAS.
