The article analyzes how water scarcity on the African continent is perceived by the United Nations, Russia, and African countries. Water is an important part of the UN Sustainable Development Agenda. The international decade for action on Water for Sustainable Development was declared from 2018 to 2028. The author studies the United Nations’ vision of the water issue by using 2 indicators that often appear in reports of this international organization and its subordinate structures, namely access to water supply services and the level of water stress. These parameters are compared with the results of public opinion polls conducted by the African research center “Afrobarometer” and search query statistics in Google Trends. In order to identify Russian society’s ideas on the water issue in Africa, literary works, as well as publications of the TASS news agency were analyzed.
