Clean Water and Sanitation
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals provide a framework to turn global ambitions into local action. Our faculty, students and staff are addressing clean water, sanitation and hygiene as well as management strategies to help ensure everyone has access to Clean Water and Sanitation.
The university is a neutral place where all minds can come together and present information without weighing in on a particular interest. FIU also brings the science and the opportunities to be involved in real-life laboratories.Dr. Maria C. Donoso, Director of FIU International Water Programs and Chairholder of the UNESCO Chair on Sustainable Water Security
