Success of the national campaign for the Right to Water in French Law
The recent passage of the Water and Aquatics law included the human right to water in its first article (30 December 2006), an unequivocal success for the national campaign run by Green Cross France. The campaign for the right to water has since progressed further via the creation of a Citizens Committee to follow up the implementation and enforcement of the law in France.
Right to Water Campaign in Italy
In 2006 and 2007, Green Cross Italy actively promoted the Right to Water to the highest State authorities. The organisation collected signatures in 30 squares around Italy and held various conferences at the Universities of Milan and Turin, in Florence, Sorrento, Palermo, and many other cities.
