Water Ways: An Exploration of Water Sustainability Strategies
Bangladesh,Singapore,Jordan,Bolivia
Water is essential to human existence, but there is a “world water crises” today as global availability is predicted to drop sharply. I want to explore the responses to declining water quality and strategies for a sustainable water supply. Each country I visit faces distinct water concerns: I will study arsenic contamination in Bangladesh, water recycling in Singapore, water optimization in arid Jordan, and community-led drinking water infrastructure in Bolivia. I hope to gain an understanding of water security strategies through involvement in hands-on projects and spending time with local residents and water experts.
