00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:09,440
As a key element for life, Water has been on the agenda
of many policy-makers and practitioners for decades.

2
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:13,040
But climate change,
growing populations, pandemics

3
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:16,880
and insufficient management of water
are making issues worse.

4
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,560
Water is a fundamental need,
even more so in this period of coronavirus.

00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,120
It forces us to step up our efforts.

00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:31,600
To do more, faster, better.

Intro

00:00:35 -> 00:00:38
The Sustainable Water Fund

00:00:40 -> 00:00:45
Initiating systemic change, by doing things differently.

8
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:49,080
Global and local water challenges cannot be
overcome by public involvement alone.

9
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:54,640
We are here to make people understand
that it is important to pay for water

10
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:56,560
in order to preserve the pumps.

11
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:03,840
Inclusion, innovation and private sector involvement
are vital factors in any water strategy.

12
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:08,000
But how do you make these
public-private partnerships in water work?

13
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,240
Over the last 10 years,
the Sustainable Water Fund

14
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:15,000
has generated a wealth
of experience in its implementation.

15
00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:21,840
If there is enough water, we will change our life
in a sustainable way.

18
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:36,840
We continue cracking our minds to think
how best we can make this more sustainable,

how best we can make it scalable.

20
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:46,160

and private capacity, finance and resources

21

and integrated water resource management.

00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:15,480
This pump represents great hope,
for me and many other women in the village.

31
00:02:35,640 --> 00:02:39,560
As the world works together
to overcome the effects of the global pandemic,

32
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,040
solving the world’s water challenges
is more urgent than ever.

33
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:48,680
With our partners, private and public,
we are proud to contribute to a better understanding

34
00:02:48,920 --> 00:02:52,560
of partnerships and sustainability
in the global water domain,

35
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:55,480
reaching the Sustainable Development Goals.

36
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:57,040
We empower,

- TEXT ON SCREEN -

37
00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:02,800
and the moment we do the empowerment,
we leave the other cog moving by itself.

00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:08,240
