What is the connection between clean water and good health? How do governments provide clean water in sprawling and overcrowded cities? Water and sanitation is a complex and under-reported subject that intersects areas of governance, health, environment, well-being and human rights. In this webinar, World Bank experts showcase how to better understand and report on access to and demand for clean water and improved sanitation. The experts look at different approaches to framing and explain these issues and how to best use data to simplify and localise them. (Webinar ran live April 28, 2016)
