Water and Sanitation
The right to water and sanitation (WATSAN) are recognised as essential to the realisation of all human rights.
GI-ESCR believes that, to confront these existential challenges, human societies will need to profoundly rethink social relations and political and economic institutions. We will need to renew our vision of work, of wealth, of justice, of care, our relationship to the natural world, and our consumption patterns; and transform policies and the organisation of our economic and political institutions accordingly. We believe that, to survive, we will need governance and institutions that are fairer, more just, more respectful of the environment, more accountable, more caring and inclusive, and that consume the world’s resources more responsibly.
