This week's issue of @PNASNews explores rural water choices in Africa. What do rural people value and will pay for in drinking water services? Affordability, proximity, quality or reliability? This matters to address the huge hole in the SDG6.1 budget pnas.org/content/pnas/1…
PNASNews@PNASNews

In this issue: Thinning and iceberg calving in Antarctic ice shelves, hippocampus innervation modulates formation of aversive memories, and volcanism and ecosystem changes in the Late Triassic. ow.ly/5A8C50GmTCP

Survey data from rural, coastal Kenyan households on assess water service preferences suggests that matching policy goals with local preferences could help close funding gaps that undermine sustainable safe drinking water access in rural Africa. In PNAS: ow.ly/9wRr50GpFXZ

Check out my short blog with @GWFWater on optimizing the use of E. coli as an indicator of health risk in drinking-water. Based on research with @KEMRI_Wellcome @reachwater @FundiFix
Global Water Forum@GWFWater

E. coli can thrive in the environment. Why should water managers care? The mere presence of E.coli in water is not necessarily a sign of contamination and, indeed, may not be a priority health concern. bit.ly/3asZxkf

Research from @wateraid indicates that each dollar invested in #WASH could generate up to a $21 return. Universal access to #water, #sanitation & hygiene can yield massive economic gains for developing countries. But investment gaps remain. Read more: wrld.bg/Q1Jn50GjGl5

Climate science advances are amazing but will not translate into making the lives of the most deprived better. This collaborative paper reinforces the critical role of politics in climate resilience and water security with direction to support those most in harm's way
REACH@reachwater

#Climateresilience is now central to many #watersecurity conversations & decisions. While many definitions are apolitical, new paper by @CatGrasham et al. in @Nature_NPJ argues it is inherently political and should be defined & used as such. 👉BLOG: bit.ly/3xBhypO

#ClimateChange is a major contributor to floods & droughts. But our report also explores how CC affects people, women, children & the elderly in their daily lives. @katrinacharles explains why improving water security is critical for climate resilience: reachwater.org.uk/water-security…
