Despite it being vital for people and the planet to thrive and to meet any essential need, around 2 billion people still do not have access to clean, safe, and drinking water. The Flowing Futures Atlas was created to draw together the threads of four years of implementation of WeWorld’s WASH Strategy, to retrace the steps taken, capitalise on the lessons learned, and explore new perspectives.

Safe drinking water, sanitation, and hygiene services are essential for ensuring human health and well-being while contributing to the improvement of other aspects of individual and community life, such as livelihood, work, housing, and education for all, on the one hand, and the development of resilient communities and a healthy environment, on the other.

Through data, maps, infographics, testimonies and stories collected in the field, the Atlas explores how water is connected to almost all aspects of life. Regional analysis and country factsheets allow the reader to focus on localized matters, while keeping a global perspective. Because water connects us all.
