Cities like #AddisAbaba need to urgently address water access issues. Hard infrastructure needs to be financed and built NOW - the alternatives are dire, for development and especially for the poorest. The banality of #WASH inequalities and health impacts must end. #RightToWater ?

Nederland organiseerde afgelopen week de VN-Waterconferentie in New York, waar meer dan 700 afspraken zijn gemaakt.

Edo Abraham: “Al die afspraken en toezeggingen om te verbeteren zijn heel goed, maar wat ontbreekt is een lange termijn visie.”

In a packed conference room at the UN HQ. I am looking forward to hearing how $30 billion/year will be raised and what kind of partnerships and development it will fund. Will most of it find its way to making an impact in Sub Saharan Africa?

With the #Africa nWaterCorridor , our community wants to ensure that water will no longer be a limiting factor for development of human and natural resources in Sub-Saharan Africa. Edo Abraham & Erik Kraaijeveld share what they are working on #Africa . #GlobalLunch

🌍A balance between water, food and energy can drive #sustainable development in Sub Saharan Africa. How to achieve an optimal and fairer utilisation of increasingly scarce water and land?

Title: Reducing committed emissions of heating…lnkd.in/gF6eRv4b lnkd.in/gSvhe-7E

'The energy transition will transform the use of natural resources and human well-being. We research how renewable space heating systems in Amsterdam can impact water withdrawals for energy supply, carbon emissions and energy justice claims.” enlarge-nexus.org/#TUDelft180

“We keep our polders dry by pumping excess rainwater to sea. If we temporarily store it in our water system, we can delay this until renewable energy is available. This helps balancing the grid, and we can use cheaper electricity.” bit.ly/3D8Vdo3 #TUDelft180
