Matt Damon has been in the water sector since 2006 when he set up the H2O Africa Foundation. His foundation merged with WaterPartners in 2009 to form Water.org, of which he is co-founder and acts as spokesperson. In that capacity he has been invited to participate in the WWD High-level Panel. Is it too much to ask him to be honest about what it costs to provide safe water for life?

The WASH sector has a dismal record, but also a long list of celebrity supporters starting with Mother Teresa in 1976. At the 1st HABITAT conference in Vancouver she co-led a “walk for water” of over 10,000 people in support of clean drinking water for the world’s urban poor. And nearly 40 years later we are still walking – http://www.worldwalksforwater.org/

Matt is doing the sector (and more importantly the unserved) a favour by advocating and all he gets is quibbling via this blog and Twitter. WASH Cost and LCCA is of some importance for professionals, but don’t shoot at someone outside the sector trying to do his bit. He might just say blow you lot, I’ll go and do something where I don’t get shot at.
If the WASH sector had done its job properly, it might have some grounds for criticism…
