Drawing to a close on Friday, World Water Week is a global conference aimed at finding ways to expand access to water and sanitation services and improve water quality. Hosted by the Stockholm International Water Institute (SIWI) from 22 to 27 August, this year’s event has focused on “building resilience" – even as it takes stock of the lengthening list of obstacles that prevent billions of people from obtaining clean water.
