This is my animation that I created to showcase the effects of water poverty. I wanted to narrate this through a moving image, linking to the audience through motion and sound.

UNICEF reported that about 4,500 children die every day from preventable, water-related diseases. Lack of access to potable water can also impact income, education, and safety, where women and children trek tens of kilometers one or several times a day in search of water.

Water and poverty are inextricably linked. Lack of safe water and poverty are mutually reinforcing; access to consistent sources of clean water is crucial to poverty reduction. Currently, 748 million people live without access to safe water and 2.5 billion live without adequate sanitation.

When we talk about poverty, we primarily refer to the economically disadvantaged groups of people across wide swaths of the globe, mainly in Africa and Asia, that survive on subsistence farming or incomes of less than $2 per day. There were 2.4 billion people living in this situation in 2010. The global rate of extreme poverty, defined as the percentage of those living on less than $1.25 per day, was halved between 1990 and 2010.

Poverty is general scarcity or the state of one who lacks a certain amount of material possessions or money. It is a multifaceted concept, which includes social, economic, and political elements.
