Since 2009 Water Witness has been at the forefront of groundbreaking research and advocacy for water justice.

Our research and investigations uncover the impacts of the global water crisis, shine a light on the causes, and work with those closest to the impacts to advocate for effective solutions at local, national and global scale.
