cleaning drinking cooking washing removing waste (sanitation) growing food

WATER FACTS To drink per day? 2-4 litres per day To grow your food? litres per day! In the UK people use… 150 litres per day (each)* In many countries people still have access to less than… 20 litres per day (each)* Over 7 times less = 5 litres

WHAT DOES WATER-VULNERABLE MEAN? Not enough water to drink. At risk of disease. Without clean water and sanitation, you are water- vulnerable. Not able to grow enough food. Using your time to find water. What do you think this word means?

WHAT ARE THE CAUSES OF WATER VULNERABILITY? Poor infrastructure…Conflict… Natural disasters…

WHAT CAN BE DONE? Communities work hard to overcome these problems themselves. However sometimes they need some support.

WHAT CAN BE DONE? Oxfam works with water-vulnerable communities to try to overcome water problems.

HOW? By doing things to help straight away, for example by providing: boreholes wells water trucks

HOW? By doing things to help people in the future, for example: providing hygiene education talking to politicians strengthening communities

IT’S UP TO YOU... Decide what you want to do to make a difference… …and how you want to do it.
