Social exclusion, environmental discrimination, and systemic #racism have led to unequal access to water and sanitation.
Recognizing the problem is a crucial step, writes @inga_winkler.

Yes. And this is why @sanwatforall & @IRCWASH are championing "presidential compacts" for safe water and sanitation. Because the evidence shows that we accelerate progress when these human rights and critical public services are high on the national development agenda

At #UN2023WaterConference, for real change and a relevant #WaterAction agenda, we shouldn't be afraid to talk about corruption, systemic integrity failures and discrimination in water and sanitation.

SWA-supported Presidential Compacts have clear commitments: increased budgets, new sources of financing, improved climate resiliency, and strategies to end waterborne diseases and ensure that even the most rural residents have equal access to water and sanitation services.

"My wish for upcoming #COPs: sanitation not to be left out of the equation in upcoming COPs, and to have a strong focus on climate mitigation, which is really crucial. We have a lot of work left to do, particularly within our water and sanitation sector." -@CatarinadeAlbuq @devex
