As the international community observes World Water Day this week, Pope Francis has reiterated his urgent call for a renewed international effort to achieve universal access to clean water and sanitation, which the United Nations recognized in 2010 as a fundamental human right.
Speakers at the gathering are discussing strategies to address the urgent challenges facing the planet today, focusing on water and development; water and climate change; the role of the state in protecting the human right to water; indigenous peoples and the human right to water. These groups include, amongst others, the Sanitary Workers Foundation for Training and Development , an Argentinian foundation created in 2015 and advocating for the universal right of access to clean water and sanitation, and the Ecclesial Conference of the Amazon , created in 2020 as “an effective instrument” for implementing the proposals that emerged from the 2019 Synod on the Amazon and the “four great dreams” outlined in the Post-Synodal Exhortation “Querida Amazonia”.
