The climate crisis is a water crisis & women are bearing the brunt of it, confronting the effects of climate change every day.
Embedding gender equity into climate policies is critical.
Women must be at the heart of #ClimateAction & #WaterAction.
On this historic #WorldWaterDay, I have a request for leaders meeting at the UN this week:
Take #WaterAction, put the #WaterJusticeManifesto by brave water defenders at the heart of these talks.
Water is NOT a private commodity.
Water is a shared human right. Water is Life.
"With #GlobalGateway we have committed over 1 billion euros to water management.
We are bringing our innovation and regulatory competence to the table. But the EU is also ready to learn from others.
Because we're in this together."
Statement at the @UN Water Conference ↓
Clean water is a human right, not a privilege.
We need #WaterAction to guarantee affordable, accessible & safe water for all.
