“Every human should have the idea of taking care of the environment, of nature, of water. So using too much or wasting water should have some kind of feeling or sense of concern. Some sort of responsibility and with that, a sense of discipline.” - The Dalai Lama

“Water is fundamental for life and health. The human right to water is indispensable for leading a healthy life in human dignity. It is a pre-requisite to the realization of all other human rights.” - The United Nations Committee on Economic, Cultural and Social Rights

10

“Children of a culture born in a water-rich environment, we have never really learned how important water is to us. We understand it, but we do not respect it.” - William Ashworth, author of “Nor Any Drop to Drink”

“Water, like religion and ideology, has the power to move millions of people. Since the very birth of human civilization, people have moved to settle close to it. People move when there is too little of it. People move when there is too much of it. People journey down it. People write, sing and dance about it. People fight over it. And all people, everywhere and every day, need it.” - Mikhail Gorbachev, President of Green Cross International

Clean, safe water is something most of us take for granted, but nearly 900 million people do not have access to it and 2.5 billion have nowhere safe and clean to go to the toilet.

“We need a global approach to this from all sides. We need to educate people, we need the scientists to create new technologies, we need the engineers to create the networks, we need every human being to be aware of how precious water is and save it. Everybody has to be involved in a very firm and assertive way.” - Isabel Allende, author

“If a child fell ill it was normal because that is how we lived. It was not unusual for children to die. There was so much illness. There was so much stress which can lead to conflict.” - Awa, Mali

“The water is pea green, flies are buzzing across the surface of the water, plants are growing in the water and garbage is strewn across the banks. There are cows drinking from the water and there are animal droppings everywhere.” - Ayisa Bombu, Ghana

“To the people of poor nations, we pledge to work alongside you to make your farms flourish and let clean waters flow.” - President Barack Obama, Inaugural Address

CONFLICT

22

Millions of women and children spend several hours a day collecting water from distant, often polluted, sources.

“Water was extremely scarce in this village and clean water was not available. I had to get up at 3:00 a.m. to collect water. It used to take me more than three hours walking down steep, narrow paths to collect 20 liters of water. Many times I dropped my bucket while walking down the steep narrow paths and it rolled down the terraces.” - Shaili Tithung, Nepal

23

“There used to be sewage on the streets that contaminated the groundwater. The streets outside were very dirty and smelly. Quarrels between women would be bad. We would argue about whose rubbish and waste was causing a smell.” - Irshad Bibi, Pakistan

24

A person can live weeks without food

but only days without water.

25

For children under five, water-related diseases are

the leading cause of death.

“We used to breathe air saturated with human fecal matter because children would defecate anywhere. One needed to walk along designat-ed footpaths always else you would trample on fresh fecal matter with your bare feet. Our human dignity was almost non-existent.” - Mtakuleni, Malawi
