He quickly realized that to make a real impact, he'd need additional expertise. Enter civil and environmental engineer Gary White. After quitting his consulting job to launch a nonprofit in 1990, he'd become an internationally recognized water and sanitation expert. A chance encounter would set these two unlikely allies on a decades-long mission to bring safe water and sanitation to the world. Through first-hand accounts of setbacks and triumphs in projects spanning across the world, The Worth of Water illuminates the challenges of building and scaling market-based financial solutions to the global water crisis-and ultimately, empower communities and individuals to make long-lasting investments in their own wellbeing"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Water-supply $z Developing countries. 650 0 $a Right to water $z Developing countries. 700 1 $a Damon, Matt, $e author. 941 $a 11 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240314023410.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012021843.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20230411010614.0 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20230203011258.0 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20220906014802.0 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20220706023116.0 952 $l KOPC446 $d 20220702011350.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20220630014701.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20220510011741.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20220429010314.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220325010023.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D2F8E05EAC0011ECB0E0A66040ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
