Better water, better jobs
Today, almost half of the world's workers - 1.5 billion people - work in water
related sectors and nearly all jobs depend on water and those that ensure its
safe delivery.
Yet the millions of people who work in water are often not
recognized or protected by basic labor rights.
The theme in 2016 - water and jobs -show how enough quantity and
quality of water can change workers' lives and livelihoods - and even transform
societies and economies.
