Why Water?
HEALTH
Contaminated water can transmit diseases such diarrhoea, cholera, dysentery, typhoid, and polio. Contaminated water is estimated to cause 485 000 diarrhoeal deaths each year. Diseases from dirty water kill more people every year than all forms of violence, including war. 43% of those deaths are children under five years old.
ECONOMIC GROWTH
Every S$1 invested in clean water can yield S$5–16 in economic returns. It's a solid investment; access to clean water is perhaps the single most powerful tool for sparking economic growth that humanity has ever known.
COVID-19 RESILIENT
The provision of safe water and hygienic conditions is essential to protecting human health during all infectious disease outbreaks, including the COVID-19 outbreak. Frequent and proper hand hygiene is one of the most important measures that can be used to prevent infection with the COVID-19 virus.
