Water and worlds - International cooperation of the Swiss Red Cross
What we take for granted from the taps is pure luxury in many countries. Water is scarce, water is polluted, water must not be wasted and water is only for drinking, is the premise in many countries of the Global South.
A trip around the world in pictures takes you to the project countries of the Swiss Red Cross and the work of the local partner organizations for better water supply, toilet construction and hygiene. Get ready for unusual perspectives and insights that will make you think and smile.
