1.1 Background of the Study
Access to clean drinking water is a fundamental human right, yet many rural communities in Nigeria, including Kaugama Local Government Area in Jigawa State, struggle to obtain safe and reliable sources of water. Contaminated water sources pose serious health risks and contribute to the spread of waterborne diseases. Photography has the potential to document the challenges surrounding access to clean water, from polluted sources to the efforts of local communities and NGOs working to provide clean water solutions.
