Powerful interview piece from @katlay with @UKAMREnvoy on why we need to control and mitigate #AMR “Climate will play out in many ways, but think about flood water, displacement, storms - what they spread and the lack of clean water if you’ve got drought; infections do go up.”

All of the UK’s international development priorities will be undermined, and the global fight for gender equality lost, unless we deliver the basics of clean water, toilets and hygiene.
