Readers’ advice: Hundreds of articles and reports on water and sanitation are published every day. We select those that we consider to be most relevant to our human rights-based approach, dropping articles that focus solely on financial investments, technical developments or very local, short-term alerts such as main breaks and boil water advisories.
The inclusion of articles in our media monitor is not an indication of our agreement with the content. Even if we strongly disagree with the statements in an article, we list what we consider to be relevant.
If you come across an interesting news report, we’d love to hear about it. Just leave a comment on this post and we’ll make sure it’s included in the next edition.
