and protect refugees, forcibly displaced communities, and stateless people, and to assist in their voluntary

“Clean drinking water and sanitation
are essential to the realization of all
human rights.”
WHAT REFUGEES NEED:
Access: to water sources in normal distances
Quality and quantity: A person needs a minimum of 7 litres of clean water
a day, just to survive. However, under international humanitarian
standards, refugees should receive a minimum of 15 litres of clean water
per person per day in an emergency, or 20 litres per day in already
functioning refugee camps
Safety: Only the organized management of key water sources can ensure
that the water supply is kept safe and distributed equitably to the whole
community and water sources and sanitary facilities need to be clearly
separated and well maintained
Information: people need instructions in new places and situations
People in desperate situations often lack the choice or the capacity to
distinguish between safe and unsafe water. They are forced to use
whatever is available
• The water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) sector aims to ensure that all
people have access to safe and sufficient water, safely managed sanitation
and live in hygienic conditions.
