".
Roughly half of the developing world’s population lacks sanitation facilities, and inadequate access to sanitation services and poor hygiene cause the death of more than 2.5 million children every year. Furthermore, only 60% of the world’s population has access to clean drinking water, with even regions in Europe affected by this problem.
Therefore, the delegations from more than 180 countries due to attend the World Water Forum, taking place in Marseille, are going to endeavour to find solutions to ensure access to water, since this is a basic right that must be guaranteed and enforced everywhere and for everyone. The European Union must take on specific commitments with the aim of promoting and protecting water resources. In addition, Member States, along with the Commission, must strengthen their commitment to meet the development targets set by the UN for water and sanitation services."@en1
