International Efforts

One of the most notable ways people are combating the clean water crisis is through international efforts. International organizations are collaborating with regional governments to come up with sustainable, long term solutions. Agencies of other countries are also stepping in to lend a hand. These efforts have transformed the clean water crisis from one country's problem to a worldwide effort.
