From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Water supply and sanitation is an ongoing challenge in the nation of Angola.[1]

Background

Angola has historically had issues with corruption and instability hindering its water infrastructure development.

Recent developments

[edit]

Despite being a relatively poor country, water access has improved in recent history. The percentage of Angolans with access to a stable water supply grew from 42% in 1990 to 54% in 2012.[2]
