    water and sanitation is a basic need of every human being and has made it necessary for it to be included as part of Un millenium goal.

    As an advocate and a promoter of water , santation and environmental issues, i am glad for this initiative for youth to bring to bear their solutions in making safe water a reality to the poor.

    This i think shd be a dream of all in promoting acess to clean water for all.

    needless to say that our part of the world(africa) where am from is faced with this enormous challenge , even in peri-urban areas.
