World Water Day: New report reveals a quarter of the global population doesn't have access to clean water
in over 45 years, taking place in New York between 22 and 24 March, the report reveals some stark truths, as it “highlights collaborative ways actors can work together to overcome common challenges”.
“As the world convenes for the first major United Nations conference on water in the last half century, we have a responsibility to plot a collective course ensuring water and sanitation for all." But equally important, Connor goes on to say, is forging partnerships with investors, financiers, governments and climate crisis communities to ensure that money is invested in ways to sustain the environment and provide potable water and sanitation to those who lack it.
According to Connor, this phenomenon is primarily observed in developing countries and emerging economies, where industrial growth and rapid increase in the population of cities are driving factors. It is in these urban areas “that you’re having a real big increase in demand,” he says.
