INDIVIDUAL MAIN POINTS: GOVERNANCE AND WATER

Water

Enrique Martín:

1. One in six children die before their fifth birthday because of health problems in the water or the lack of it.
2. There is enough water for all but the problem is a management of it between all of the countries.
3. In 2050 one in four people is going to live in a country with chronic storage water, so it is important to change this.

María Muñoz

1. There’s a huge difficulty to access the use of water in an important part of the world population
2. There’s enough water, the thing is that there’s not equity in its distribution
3. One of every 6 children die before their 5th birthday

Carolina Navarro

1. Though there is enough water in our planet, it is wrong and evil distribute. Consequently, this fact give rise to a water shortage problem.
2. Water is a human right, therefore everyone needs water in their lives.

3.  We must guarantee water's accessibility, as it's a basic human right.

Mónica López Muñoz

1. Encourage renewable resources to produce resources that supply to underdeveloped and developing countries with water and sanitation, key factors for development.
2. With the use of technology and transport, we could share water equitably to ensure the stability of countries.
3. The combination of the natural cycle and the urban cycle of water could provide the necessary amount of water to those countries where the weather is adverse (most of the year it doesn't rain) because it determines the welfare and socio-economic development of these countries.

Governance

Enrique Martín

1. The world has changed so the governance must also do it.
2. The concept of governance should be much higher and should cover all social areas.
3. Governance is not just for the institutions is also to all of the social relationships.

María Muñoz

1. As citizens we are extremely manipulated. We’re not the owners of our own government.
2. We are really far away of what governance means
3. There’s a huge antagonism between technological evolution and the evolution of governance

Carolina Navarro

1. Governance must be more transparent.
2. There is too much distance between government and citizens, this is a problem we must solve.
3. Nowadays there is control over the government, but there is no any control over the governance.

Mónica López:

1. Control technologies for people to act in a more participatory way in the governance of their country but also control that information isn't confused with personal judgements.
2. Governance must go further the political problems fulfilling several principles as legality, accountability, transparency and efficiency.
3. Usually, the answers given by the governors aren't transparent and they don't take into account the real social needs, global problems don't have global solutions and through the use of technology these global social needs could be more beared in mind.
