Sanitation and Water Pollution - Indonesia

Children are seen playing in household wastewater that flows to the canal in Medan, North Sumatra, Indonesia, on June 3, 2025. This scene highlights the significant environmental challenges associated with inadequate sanitation and water pollution. According to reports from the World Bank (2021), access to decent sanitation in Indonesia remains a critical issue, with millions of households lacking a safe waste disposal system. Studies by the Environmental Health Journal (2020) also show that exposure to domestic wastewater can increase the prevalence of waterborne diseases such as diarrhoea, typhus, and skin infections, especially in children. It is estimated that more than 50% of cases of diarrhoea in children under five years in urban areas are related to contaminated water sources (WHO, 2019). This condition not only poses a serious health risk for the local community but also has a long-term impact on water ecosystems. Photo by Aditya Sutanta/ABACAPRESS.COM
