Abstract: Today, more than 2 billion people still do not have access to safe drinking water, and more than 3.6 billion people do not have access to sanitation. In many countries, climate change is increasing the risks related to the water cycle; at the same time, the quantitative and qualitative pressure on water resources threatens people and ecosystems. Lack of access to water and sanitation and failure to sustainably manage water resources have dramatic consequences in terms of health, gender equity, the economy, and the en- vironment.
