Hunger
Food & Water
FOOD – Being hungry impacts everything. When families can’t cover this basic need, they struggle to find a way out of poverty. It’s harder to take advantage of economic opportunities or get involved in community actions. Kids who are hungry don’t do as well in school — if they are able to go at all. Babies who don’t get the right nutrition early in life may never reach their full potential as adults.
WATER
Water+ is about more than just hand washing and clean drinking water. Water+ is about linking water to other activities so that we can make the biggest impact possible. It is about water for agriculture, for means of living, for nutrition, for keeping girls in school, for helping women become leaders, for preventing disease outbreaks, and more. Water + helps us achieve more with fewer resources and better respond to the complex needs of the communities we serve.
Water+ approaches mean that we work with others whenever possible. We partner with communities, businesses, and governments to ensure that water and sanitation services have effective management with strong leadership, environmental sustainability, and plans for long-term funding and maintenance. We focus on strengthening the links between water, nutrition, health, agriculture, and education.
