Our Background & Introduction

Water is life, and without it, life is not sustainable. We at A Hook To Fish, are trying to ensure that all peoples of the world deserve to have clean, quality drinking water. In Sub Saharan Africa, few countries boasts of quality drinking water. The majority affected are mostly women and the girl child. This is because water plays a big role in hygiene especially for women in all spheres of their lives. As the Secretary General of the United Nations aptly puts it:

"Our indispensable water resources have proven themselves to be greatly resilient, but they are increasingly vulnerable and threatened. Our growing population's need for water for food, raw materials and energy is increasingly competing with nature's own demands for water to sustain already  ecosystems and the services on which we depend. Day after day, we pour millions of tons of untreated sewage and industrial and agricultural wastes into the world's water systems. Clean water has become scarce and will become even scarcer with the onset of climate change. And the poor continue to suffer first and most from pollution, water shortages and the lack of adequate sanitation."
