A/77/167: Human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation of people in impoverished rural areas

English
Published Date
In this report the Special Rapporteur analyses how even when most of the world’s population living in extreme poverty live in rural areas, far from urban centres, they are marginalized from political decisions. He showcases how traditional peasant cultures sustainably manage aquatic ecosystems and promote integrated community-based water management models. Likewise, it reflects on how the expansion of large agro-livestock, mining, forestry, and tourism, based on land- and watergrabbing, together with the lack of basic infrastructure and government support, is challenging these communities’ human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation.
