Summary

As the REACH programme concludes, we reflect on a decade of dedicated research and impactful interventions aimed at enhancing water security for vulnerable communities worldwide. Funded by the UK's Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), REACH has significantly contributed to the global water security agenda.

Anna Nileshwar from the FCDO noted, "The FCDO-funded REACH programme has exceeded our expectations in so many ways, improving water security for over 10 million people worldwide. The wealth of in-depth and interdisciplinary research developed over 10 years has hugely expanded the evidence base and will guide the UK’s approach to development for better water security worldwide."

By celebrating the culmination of the REACH programme, we acknowledge the collective efforts of all partners, researchers, and communities involved. The insights and lessons learned will continue to inform and guide future efforts in achieving sustainable water security for all.
