Nuba is a Palestinian village in Hebron Governorate, located 12 km northwest to Hebron city, in the south of the West Bank. The village is located within the southern Palestinian mountains, that are descending from east to west, with an average altitude of 550 m above sea level. It is bordered by Halhul village to the east , Kharas to the north, Beit Ula to the south and the Green Line to the west.

The population in 2021 was nearly 7,400 inhabitants (PC0BS, 2021) with a population growth rate of 0.19%.

The SFD graphic shows that 8% of the excreta or faecal sludge generated are safely managed while 92% are unsafely managed. The safely managed Faecal Sludge (FS) generated by 8% of the population is temporary as this FS is only contained. So, once the containment gets filled and the FS from the containment is emptied, the percentage of unsafely managed FS would increase.
