Global leaders and Heads of State from Africa and the global north, gathered at the twenty-seventh United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP27), have called for urgent investment into Africa’s water and sanitation sector as it convenes the inauguration the International High-Level Panel on Water Investments for Africa.
