WaterAid Catalogue

WaterAid, presented here through Digital Response Media Ltd, highlights the global crisis in water and sanitation and the work being done to help the world's poorest people gain access to safe water, sanitation and hygiene education.

The Scale of the Crisis

There is a global crisis in water and sanitation, with billions of people living in conditions of squalor and disease that were eradicated long ago in wealthier parts of the world. According to WaterAid, the scale of the problem is stark:

• 1.1 billion people lack access to clean water
• 2.6 billion people lack access to basic sanitation

This crisis is killing as many as 5,000 children a day, yet it is described as an entirely preventable public health crisis.
