About [Edit]
At the 2002 World Summit for Sustainable Development, Secretary of State Colin Powell announced the U.S. commitment to the Goals for Sustainable Development.
Goals
One goal is to "reduce by half, the proportion of people without access to safe and affordable drinking water and sanitation" by the year 2015.
The goals of the MWA reflect the belief that humankind has an extraordinary capacity to resolve its problems. Just by providing safe water and sanitation you can dramatically impact the lives of people in so many ways.
To help reach these critical goals, leading U.S. based, non-governmental organizations formed the Millennium Water Alliance (MWA). The MWA is a cooperating group of humanitarian and faith-based agencies working to assist poor communities in the developing world gain access to safe water and sanitation.
This mission is pursued by advocating for policies and resources, developing best practices, sharing information, and coordinating member efforts in providing clean water and sanitation services.
The MWA believes that sustainable development cannot exist without water security. It is the foundation for health, education and development of a viable economy. Lack of this basic human need impacts the most vulnerable members of our global community.
