GLOBAL WATER TRUST

The challenge is to develop new ways of inspiring funding for clean water projects, introduce new technologies and equipment to deliver clean water, train civil society to efficiently operate and manage clean water projects and dramatically increase awareness and media attention of this epidemic health and economic crisis. By leading a global water coalition, the Global Water Trust believes that it is possible to reach the United Nations Millennium Development Goal of halving the number of people without clean water by 2015. Unless the entire world unites to solve this crisis, "nearly 75% of all human beings will experience the devastating health and economic affects of dirty water by 2025," according to the United Nations and World Health Organization. A world without clean water is a world literally dying of thirst. The time to act is now.
