Let’s protect the human right to water!
In our commitment to guarantee the right to access to water as a universal human right, we propose the video “ A dream made of water ” from the project “Cities and the sustainable management of water and natural resources” funded by the Italian Agency for Development Cooperation-AICS. Ten years ago a UN Resolution proclaimed the right to water a “universal and fundamental human right”. The United Nations General Assembly “recognizes the right to drinking water and sanitation as a human right essential to the full enjoyment of life and all other rights. AMU has been working for access to water, especially in Burundi, for over 10 years by promoting community participation, in every phase of the management of the water access cycle to guarantee the sustainability of interventions and the real development of the community itself. Finally, the management of the asset and access must bring with them a greater awareness to implement behavioral changes regarding the use of water as a preventive factor for health and hygiene-related problems.
