Water Crisis Infographic

Water is essential for all forms of life. Although water does not provide calories or organic nutrients, it plays an important role in our world. It is the center of all life.


When the well’s dry, we know the worth of water.” – Benjamin Franklin


Nearly a third of the world's population - 2.6 billion people - live in countries with 'high water scarcity,' according to the World Resources Organization, with 1.7 billion people living in areas with 'serious water shortage' in 17 countries.


While the world's most water-deficient countries are known to be more than a dozen countries in the arid Middle East, the World Resources Institute says India faces significant challenges in the use and management of water resources that will impact everything from people's health to economic development. Furthermore, Pakistan, Eritrea, Turkmenistan and Botswana are countries with serious water shortages.
