Vital resource, universal right and cause of conflicts.
Water is the basis of life on Earth. It covers 71% of our planet and yet, in its usable form, it is a rare and increasingly contested resource . Although called the “blue planet”, only 0.5% of water is available to humans and only a portion of this is drinkable or uncontaminated. A scarcity that transforms it into a precious asset, the object of geopolitical disputes, inequalities and global challenges.
