Global strategy 2022-2032 document

Without sustainable and safe water, sanitation and hygiene, no one can live a full and healthy life. Which is why our vision is of a world where everyone, everywhere has these three essentials. A world where:

• No woman is forced to waste her time walking and queuing for hours to collect water.
• No girl is excluded from a better future because her school doesn’t have working toilets that lock.
• No community is held back by an endless cycle of sickness from broken and dirty water supplies and poor hygiene.
• No one lives in fear that a changing climate will mean a thirsty tomorrow.
• Everyone can live a more fulfilled, dignified and healthy life, with the opportunities that having sustainable and safe water, sanitation and hygiene brings.

We are WaterAid and we exist for that purpose alone

But global progress towards our vision is shamefully slow. Billions of people are denied

their right to water and sanitation every single day, causing a life of ill health, poverty and

stolen futures. That's why we have a bold new plan to end this crisis - once and for all.
