Globally, at least one third of the population in developing countries does not have access to safe drinking water. Safe water is especially critical for expectant women and children, who are the most vulnerable to water-borne diseases. In Tanzania, out of a population of 60 million, more than 17 million do not have access to safe water sources.
In developing countries where 80% of illnesses are due to poor water and sanitation, the lack of clean drinking water directly contributes to the spread of diseases like dysentery, typhoid fever, cholera, and more. In Kenya, poor water quality and sanitation is a leading cause of these potentially deadly diseases.
Climate change is increasing aridity, which reduces the amount of water available for drinking and farming. Many farmers in these regions access groundwater, which can be less prone to impacts of climate change impacts and evaporation losses.
