Water scarcity and migration are two global problems that are closely linked. ⚠ Climate change, droughts, and poor water management are causing water supplies to dwindle in many regions, making it increasingly difficult for people to access the water they need for drinking, agriculture, and other essential uses. When water becomes scarce, it can devastate livelihoods, especially for farmers and herders. As a result, regions experiencing extreme water stress, such as the Middle East and North Africa, have seen increased migration. 🌍 By driving innovative solutions we can mitigate this problem!

ogether, we provide innovations with the chance to enhance the stability of societies worldwide. Application deadline: 31 August 2024 Apply now:🔗 gpid.net #InnovateForTheWorld #GPID2024
