Challenges
1. Infrastructure Deficiencies:
Lack of Sanitation:
Many areas lack proper sanitation infrastructure, leading to open defecation and water contamination, which poses significant health risks.
Inadequate Waste Management:
Poorly managed waste disposal systems contribute to pollution and unsanitary conditions, particularly in urban areas.
Water Scarcity and Contamination:
Water scarcity, coupled with pollution from industrial and agricultural sources, makes access to clean and safe drinking water a major challenge.
Limited Access to Basic Services:
Many communities lack access to basic services like clean water, sanitation, and waste management, leading to poor hygiene and health outcomes.
2. Behavioral and Cultural Issues:
Lack of Awareness and Education:
Insufficient public awareness about the importance of cleanliness and hygiene practices hinders efforts to improve sanitation and waste management.
Cultural Norms and Practices:
Certain cultural norms and practices can contribute to poor sanitation and hygiene behaviors, requiring targeted interventions to promote positive change.
Lack of Community Participation:
Involving communities in sanitation and waste management initiatives is crucial for their success, but often faces challenges due to lack of engagement and ownership.
3. Environmental Concerns:
Pollution:
Air, water, and soil pollution from industrial activities, vehicle emissions, and improper waste disposal pose significant threats to public health and the environment.
Climate Change:
Climate change impacts, such as droughts, floods, and sea-level rise, exacerbate existing environmental challenges and threaten water security and sanitation infrastructure.
Plastic Pollution:
The widespread use of plastic and its improper disposal contribute to significant environmental pollution, particularly in aquatic ecosystems.
4. Other Challenges:
Poverty:
Poverty can limit access to clean water, sanitation, and waste management services, creating a cycle of environmental degradation and health problems.
Lack of Political Commitment:
Sustained political commitment and adequate funding are crucial for addressing environmental and sanitation challenges, but often face resistance due to competing priorities.
Lack of Coordination among actors
There is a need for better coordination among different actors involved in sanitation and waste management, such as government agencies, NGOs, and the private sector.

Challenges can be legal or methodical.
It is important that nothing that the NGO or corporate or funding agency or philanthropist or celebrity does to address the challenges is illegal.

Its not like a medical surgery where after operation of 10 minutes or 10 hours, the patient is ok physically. Of course, it may affect the patient in some medical surgeries but problem gets solved. It takes time (maybe years) to address challenges and still the problem continues. Like removing poverty is simple by word but in the last 2025 years, world is not without poor. And now mental poverty is big (greed is one of the major the disease) in the middle or upper middle or rich people in the world.

We will share the challenges on each social issue and its notour experience in all cases. So we will share the challenges and below that share the name of the organisation (for profit or not for profit) with link to the official website of the organisation. Or we may share the general challenges the issue faces.
