Inadequate Sanitation

One in three people worldwide do not have access to adequate sanitation. Inadequate sanitation can lead to diarrheal diseases that often result in serious illness and not uncommonly, death-- especially in children. These diarrheal diseases contribute not only to the decreased health of an individual, but also to an increase in poverty. Diseases of this nature cause an inability to attend school and work, thus directly decreasing income as well as educational development (Wolfer,2014). The problem of inadequate sanitation is cyclical in nature-- just as it is caused by poverty, it also worsens poverty.
