Water Quality and Health

As an advocate of the One Health initiative, the Task Force adopts an integrative approach that recognizes the interrelated nature of human, animal, plant and ecosystem health. From this perspective, the aim is to integrate wastewater monitoring into broader public health monitoring frameworks.

The Task Force leads an inclusive and technical dialogue that includes contributions from public and private partners and is enriched by active citizen participation. It aims to create a platform that serves as a nexus for scientists, water associations, global water players and key stakeholders to engage in capacity building, collaboration and knowledge sharing, particularly for low- and middle-income countries.

Through this collaboration, this Task Force seeks to raise awareness, mobilize political commitment and catalyze effective action on key water issues. In particular, it is committed to attracting the interest of funding agencies and encouraging them to invest in capacity-building activities.
