Our Mission
Global Water Challenge (GWC) is committed to finding and implementing solutions by engaging people and their governments, spreading knowledge, and increasing access to markets. Our challenge is to reach people with the tools and education they need to empower themselves. Access to clean water and sanitation leads to healthier, longer and more productive lives, and breaks the cycle of poverty. Water and sanitation are not just human rights, they are human necessities.
Global Water Challenge is a diverse coalition that consists of leading organizations working to provide creative and sustainable solutions for universal access to safe drinking water and sanitation.
Our Mission is to generate a global movement to meet the urgent need for safe water and sanitation by spurring collective awareness and investment in innovation by corporate, public, and nongovernmental actors.
This GWC offers a model of partnership among leading business, NGO and government organizations to much more effectively deliver clean water and sanitation and hygiene education projects, build new partnerships, share best practices and raise global visibility and support. Delivering these services more efficiently and widely can not only save thousands of lives a week, but is also the essential first step in any community's path out of poverty and disease toward more opportunity.
Without safe, affordable and sustainable supplies of drinking water and improved sanitation and hygiene, progress toward other development goals (including improved healthcare, poverty reduction, increased elementary school attendance rates and environmental remediation) will be far more difficult to achieve and sustain. Fortunately, the answers to this problem exist today and simply require our immediate attention and support.
