The Special Rapporteur on the human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation is organizing the Third Human Rights Youth Challenge and invites youth aged between 18 to 23 years to create an original submission and youth aged between 24 and 32 years to submit a 2000 word essay on “privatisation and the human rights to water and sanitation”.
Following a change of the winning prize and a decision to widen participation, the 3rd Human Rights Youth Challenge has been extended. The Special Rapporteur would like to take this opportunity to also focus on the theme of the challenge.
The Special Rapporteur is looking for submissions that examine the involvement of the private sector – namely: businesses – in the water and sanitation sector, from a human rights perspective.
