At a time when many rural supply schemes struggle with community ownership, Ayesha Khatoon has shown that dedication and community trust can make all the difference.

She comes from a modest family. Her husband works outside the village as a daily wage labourer, while she is responsible for raising their children. When the government's rural piped water scheme was introduced in 2016–17, Ayesha donated a portion of her own land for the construction of the water infrastructure.

Today, she manages the village's , ensuring that every household receives water regularly. Whenever a technical issue arises, she acts immediately, making sure services are restored without delay. Her unwavering commitment has earned the trust and respect of the entire community.

🌟Sustainable water services are not built by infrastructure alone…they are sustained by local champions whose dedication transforms public system.🌟

The world is running short on time to meet SDG 6.

To reach the global goal of safe water, sanitation and hygiene for everyone, progress needs to speed up dramatically. 8 times faster than today's rate for drinking water, 6 times faster for sanitation, and 2 times faster for hygiene.

Progress like this has happened before, and it can happen again, faster, with the right support in the right places.

That's the pace we're building for
