Water is Life

Youngsters plunge into the water of Pasig River from Jones Bridge and Baseco in Manila yesterday. Water is an essential building block of life as it is vital for creating jobs and supporting economic, social, and human development. Today, there are over 663 million people living without safe water supply close to home, and who spend countless hours queuing or trekking to distant sources, and coping with the health impacts of using contaminated water.
