...Leaving no one behind
Under the motto Leaving no one Behind, Sustainable Development
Goal 6 is crystal clear: water for all by 2030. In spite of this optimistic goal, billions of people are still
living without safe water: their households, schools, workplaces, farms
and factories struggling to survive and thrive.
Marginalized groups such as women, children, refugees, indigenous peoples,
disabled people and many others are often overlooked, and sometimes
face discrimination, as they try to access and manage the safe water
they need.
This World Water Day, 22nd March, is about tackling the water crisis
by addressing the reasons why so many people are being left behind.
However, is there anything we can do to help them?
We can all play our part by saving water everyday. We can also support and join events and initiatives aimed at improving these people's lives and making them grow.
Water is a precious, yet finite resource essential for life, with no
adequate substitute: do NOT take it for granted!
