Ghana is one of the most densely populated countries in West Africa. Since the adoption of a new constitution in 1993 Ghana has become more politically stable, but a history of coups, food shortages and corruption means the country remains poor and indebted.
The three northern regions are particularly deprived, with one in ten children dying before their fifth birthday.
80% of all diseases in Ghana are caused by unsafe water and poor sanitation.
More than nine million people don't have access to safe drinking water.
Only around 13% of the population have access to adequate sanitation facilities.
