We are WaterAid, the international not-for-profit making clean water, decent toilets and good hygiene normal for everyone, everywhere. Our mission is to transform the lives of the poorest and most marginalised people by improving access to safe water, sanitation and hygiene. With the help of our local partners, we work with communities to build low-cost, sustainable solutions that meet their needs.

We exist because 785 million people live without clean water close to home, and 2 billion don’t have a decent toilet of their own. And climate change is making the situation worse.
