Ensuring sustainable living standards and resilient communities
Goal: Rural and maritime communities have access to essential services such as clean water and sanitation, adequate housing and waste management, health, education and nutritional security.
A significant urban-rural gap exists, with rural communities generally facing challenges in accessing essential services, which serves as a fundamental right to an adequate standard of living and decent livelihood. The Ministry plays a key role in ensuring that rural and maritime priorities are elevated by national agencies to promote equitable access to essential services such as clean water and sanitation, adequate housing and waste management, health, education and nutritional security.
