The author speaks about their experiences attending and speaking at the 2018 World Water Forum (FAMA) in Brazil. An event largely sponsored by Nestle and Coca-Cola, corporations pushing to privatize and control public water resources.

Their message to the world: water cannot be treated as a privately owned commodity; water is a human right and a common good of and for the people. Photo Credit: Guilherme Cavalli/Cimi
