La République Démocratique du Congo (RDC) fait face à des défis structurels majeurs dans l’accès aux services sociaux de base, notamment l’eau potable, l’assainissement et l’hygiène. En raison de son immensité géographique, de la faiblesse des infrastructures et de l’instabilité sécuritaire persistante dans plusieurs régions, dont l’Est du Pays, une grande partie de la population vit dans des conditions précaires qui favorisent la propagation des maladies hydriques et compromettent la santé publique. Selon l’Enquête Démographique de Santé (EDS 2023-2024), seulement 43% des ménages ont accès à un service d’eau potable de base et 15% à un assainissement basique.
