Synopsis

The Blue Communities Project encourages communities around the world to support the idea of a water commons framework, recognizing that water is a shared resource for all. To do this, the project offers resolutions that recognize water and sanitation as human rights, ban or phase out the sale of bottled water in public facilities and at public events, and promote publicly financed, owned, and operated water and wastewater services. Blue Communities is a short, practical handbook on how you can advocate for your community to become a blue community, and gives a history of the movement that started the project.
