The WISE manual was launched at a helluva fun #WISE_scales extended-family dinner at @UNC_Water_Inst. So nice to see folks from around the world swapping #waterinsecurity stories. https://t.co/n4QaoJ0IKP

Perceptions shape behaviors that impact health, sustainability, and use of water services. Measuring these perceptions helps us understand and address real concerns, ensuring safer and more effective water management. 🌍💧 #WaterSecurity #PublicHealth

It is wonderful to see #WISE_scales on the minds of advocates for #SDG2 🥘🫘🍌. Thank you for featuring the #watersecurity recommendations made by @JoshDoesScience @pablogaitan & me in your coordination of global campaigning & advocacy for #foodsecurity & #nutrition. @Mvilar213

It's #WorldWaterDay season y'all! To celebrate, we've planned 2 big events. #1 we've teamed up w/ @CSISFoodWater to make public 40 #waterinsecurity country profiles w/ @Gallup World Poll data. @CSIS has brought their sweet #dataviz skills to make data intx possible. #WISE_scales

In a recent @IFAD blog post, my colleague and I discuss how experiential water insecurity data can inform policy and practice.

We need to understand not only whether there are pipes and taps, but also whether water systems are meeting people's needs.

@FAO And check out this supportive message from the editor! I've returned to it a few times this past month while slogging through feedback from reviewers for a different paper. Kind words go far in academia!

[Josh Miller @JoshDoesScience]

Excited to finally have these findings in the public domain! The story is clear and aligns with the theme for @FAO's World Food Day: "water is life, water is food". It's time to break down silos and get folks from the #wash and #nutrition sectors in collaboration.

[Josh Miller @JoshDoesScience]

@FAO Incredibly grateful for the dedication and support of my @NUAnthro and @IFPRI colleagues. Cheers, @ProfSeraYoung & @ClaudiaRingler!

It's been several weeks since the @WaterInstitute's Water & Health Conference, but I'm still thinking about the excellent work on food and water insecurity presented by @LaurenMTBroyle1 and on water intermittency by @WorkmanCl. Cheers to you both for timely, impactful research!

[Josh Miller @JoshDoesScience]

On Wednesday, join me and folks from @Helvetas, Swiss Water and Sanitation Consortium, @UNSW, and Resilience Centre Nairobi at 130p ET to discuss the value of measuring lived experiences with water for improving policy and impact! 💧🎯

[Josh Miller @JoshDoesScience]

Last week, #WorldFoodForum. This week, #UNCwaterandhealth. Inspired and motivated by all the excellent folks discussing the interlinkages between water security, good nutrition, and health!

Teaching has a lot of highs and lows, but one of my student's examples of deduction brought me a lot of joy while grading this week #beyhive
