Water+&+Resources



Why is this important The lack of access to clean water and farmland is an increasing problem for many people around the world - and the struggle over these limited resources leads to war and conflict. We must work to be sure all people have at least the most basic natural resources such as safe drinking water.

﻿Summary This is important because mostly in africa children have to search and travel for miles before they find water not even knowing if its clean or drinkable. This is affecting ypung and helpless childreans health.

Ensure water and other Natural Resources What I can do to help stop this horrible and miserable event in the world is possibly emailing this site to governmant officials and talk to them about joining the search for clean water and if we can produce enought money maybe we can ship bottle waters over to africa and find a way for water filters and pipes to bring in clean water .

Improved hygiene will lead to less risk of disease, which in turn will result in stepped up school attendance and ultimately nations’ economic growth. WASH also enhances girls’ continuation of their education, notes the new publication, entitled [|Raising Clean Hands: Advancing Learning, Health and Participation through WASH in Schools]. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Ms. Kaag pointed out today that improving sanitation in schools will help to achieve the Millennium Development Goals ([|MDGs]), notably the targets of reducing child mortality and halving the proportion of people without access to safe water and basic sanitation. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Providing WASH in schools, the report says, will require the involvement of all segments of society, including communities, media, students and the private sector.
