About Conference

pose significant health risks to populations worldwide, particularly in regions with inadequate access to clean water and sanitation infrastructure. These diseases are caused by pathogenic microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, and parasites that contaminate water sources, including drinking water, recreational water bodies, and wastewater. Common waterborne illnesses include cholera, typhoid fever, dysentery, and cryptosporidiosis, with symptoms ranging from mild gastrointestinal discomfort to severe dehydration and death. Poor sanitation practices, inadequate water treatment facilities, and environmental pollution contribute to the transmission of waterborne pathogens, exacerbating the burden of disease in vulnerable communities. Effective prevention and control strategies for waterborne diseases entail improving water quality through proper treatment and disinfection, promoting hygiene and sanitation practices, and implementing robust surveillance and response systems to detect and mitigate outbreaks promptly.
