This panel discussion presents a rare opportunity to bring global cross-sector leaders from the UN and the private sector into conversation with local peacebuilders, activists, and scholars working at the intersections of water, health, and peace to accelerate the development of sustainable solutions. The objective of this session is to explore the barriers to sustainable water action and consider the role of locally-informed and global-minded innovation in “uniting the world for water” as we make progress towards SDG6 (Clean Water and Sanitation).
