Loïc Fauchon speaks at the Opening Ceremony of the International Summit on Water Security, Marrakesh, 1 October
Marrakesh, Morocco, 1 October 2019 – “Very often, water suffers bad treatment. Why is this? All of you here know!” World Water Council President Loïc Fauchon said at the Opening Ceremony of the International Summit on Water Security, in the presence of 300 participants from 65 countries.
“Because demography is growing and the world’s population is more and more concentrated within cities, especially megacities with its trail of poverty and frightening pollution,” he continued.
He then urged for dignity and trust: “The right to water is the cornerstone for securing access to water for all and provides the strongest connection to global water security.”
