An open webinar hosted on Friday 18 October will explain and show the main functionalities of the SDG 6 Data Portal. The SDG 6 Data Portal brings together data on all the SDG 6 global indicators and other key social, economic and environmental parameters. Through maps, charts and tables, the Portal offers tailored options for visualization and analysis of the data, including on interlinkages. The Portal is a flagship product of UN-Water’s Integrated Monitoring Initiative for SDG 6 and complements the Global SDG Indicators Database and indicator-specific databases by offering in-depth information across all SDG 6 indicators, as well as tailor-made analytical and visualization tools, all in one place.

The objectives of the Portal are to:

• Track overall progress towards SDG 6 at global, regional and national levels.
• Enable assessment and analysis of the state of water resources and linkages to other sectors.
• Raise awareness of water and sanitation issues to help catalyse action.
• Encourage and improve SDG 6 monitoring and reporting at all levels.
• Be an entry point to the wealth of water and sanitation information available within the UN system.
