A Fresh Look at WaterAn estimated one billion people live without clean water, and 2.6 billion people lack sanitation facilities, according to the World Health Organization, in Geneva. Despite the growing interest in water issues among private donors, charity leaders say they still face an uphill struggle to meet all the needs. They say the issue has been a problem for such a long time that donors do not see an urgency. |
A Different Kind of Water TortureA recent World Health Organization report, "Safer Water, Better Health" estimates that providing safe water, adequate sanitation and hygiene could save health-care agencies $7 billion a year on health-care costs. Meanwhile 320 million productive working days could be gained and children could go to school an extra 272 million days per year. |
