The vision of WaterAid is of a world where everyone and no one exempted has access to clean water, can afford decent toilets and have good hygiene. They believe that everyone has a role to play in making this vision and goals possible for everyone and in anyplace before 2023 and they hope that businesses will eventually play a big role in bringing about the changes that are needed to make this a reality. The company states that they place a high premium on the input of several water companies in the UK and around the world which includes giving them financial aid, and practical and innovative support. Their present goal is to help all businesses no matter where they are located to see the value in having water, sanitation and hygiene accessible to everyone all over the world. It cannot be argued that water is essential. Everyone knows that. Since the 1850s, man has understood the health impacts of poor hygiene and untreated sewage systems in the community. Despite these, this need to provide safe, clean water for everyone in any place has been undervalued all over the world. The company has met with many global business leaders to speak to them about the value of their vision and they are having good responses from these business leaders.

Key Takeaways:

• The World Economic Forum in Davos, 2018, saw the agenda of the worldwide need for hygienic water brought front and center.
• Even in today’s modern world one out of nine people lacks access to clean drinking water.
• One in three people across the globe lack acess to a clean toilet to use.

“We all have a role to play in making access to these essentials normal for everyone, everywhere, by 2030, and businesses are crucial in bringing about the step change needed to meet this global challenge.”
