On #WorldWaterDay we are asking you to imagine life in your city if you couldn't access clean water. Right now, that’s the reality for 844 mm people who lack access to clean water! It might not be happening in our cities, but we can't ignore it. #Water should be available to all!
#WorldWaterDay is just around the corner!
