For millions of families, the journey from a safe water source to the home is where water quality is lost. Recent World Health Organization (WHO) evidence highlights the widespread risk of drinking water becoming recontaminated before it is consumed. Protecting water quality right at the point of use is a critical piece missing from many national drinking water strategies.

This session provides a direct, practical synthesis of the latest WHO and UN publications, translating global evidence into actionable insights for organizations responsible for improving drinking water safety.

By joining this briefing, you will:

• Anticipate policy shifts: Identify critical drinking water quality challenges from source to household.

• Explore key findings: Analyze recent WHO and UN reports and their implications for national planning.

• Leverage the HWTS Compendium: Learn how decentralized, point-of-use options can reach the most vulnerable.

• Engage with experts: Participate in a live Q&A on robust planning for small systems.

Register today to explore how these findings can strengthen national drinking water strategies. Attending live will be the best way to contribute to the dialogue. If you can’t be there, please register anyway. We'll share a recording of the presentation portion of the meeting, along with other resources.
