Dear subscribers,
The world and the Butterfly Effect members are now facing a global emergency due to the COVID-19 pandemic that has exacerbated the vital importance of integrated and sustainable water management, as well as of water security, particularly for the most vulnerable and marginalized populations.
COVID-19 has imposed restrictive measures all over the world and especially in developing countries where curfews and states of emergency have been very common and aggravating inequalities. In this context, contributing to SDGs - in particular SDG 6 dedicated to Water - is more than ever a priority. In that regard, the mobilization of civil society - in particular women and the new generation - will be all critical to face the complexity of the challenges.
Thus, the role of the Butterfly effect is more relevant than ever and the network will remain committed to a more inclusive water sector, allowing full expression and participation of civil society and NGOs / CSOs in the processes of change of today and tomorrow.
