The World Walks for Water & Sanitation

"The World Walks for Water and Sanitation is a global event demanding action to address the world's largest crisis - water and sanitation.

Millions of people walk great distances each day to collect water. Billions have no safe place to go to the toilet and are forced to walk into fields to defecate, risking assault and compromising their dignity. Unsafe drinking water and poor sanitation means children have to miss school and are dying needlessly from disease caused by contaminated water. Ending the water and sanitation crisis would help break the poverty cycle, would increase school attendance, and save lives.

From 17-25 March 2012, thousands of people across the globe will walk together to demand political change. The walks will take place around World Water Day, 22 March."
