Agua limpia y saneamiento

El manejo del agua es crucial para el desarrollo sostenible, ya que el agua dulce limpia y los servicios de saneamiento son esenciales para la salud y el bienestar humano.

El agua no sale del grifo por arte de magia, y las aguas residuales deben ser recolectadas y tratadas: esto implica procesos largos y complejos, que involucran tuberías y plantas, tecnologías de última generación, control continuo de calidad, máquinas, materiales y energía. Aunque se ha avanzado considerablemente para lograr la gestión integrada de los recursos hídricos, miles de millones de personas todavía carecen de acceso a agua potable segura y saneamiento. Iniciando en Italia, en MULTIPLIERS se involucrará a escuelas y comunidades para aumentar su comprensión científica sobre la gestión del agua y la sostenibilidad. Juntos, también emprenderemos acciones concretas para fomentar comportamientos sostenibles y así ahorrar y proteger los recursos hídricos y preservar el medio ambiente.

May 24, 2022
