The Sustainable Society Foundation has composed a  sustainable society index (SSI) for 151 countries, covering 99% of the world's population. Good news is that, generally speaking, the human wellbeing score is growing particularlyfor the African regions. However,  scores of most African countries are still (far) behind to other regions. and face the  large challenges of providing access to an improved water source for all. The SSI can help to identify problems in a city, especially for an integrated topic as water.
