Synopsis
It is the most basic requirement of human survival - clean drinking water. Yet, about 1 billion people do not have access to it, 80% live in sub-Saharan Africa, Eastern and Southern Asia. About 4,500 children die every day because they have no clean drinking water. This three-part series looks at the dire state of the common people from India to Indonesia to Philippines and the problems they face in getting clean drinking water.
Women, Water & 10,000 Miles focuses on the story of one woman and a little girl who live in the most arid part of the Rajasthan state where the annual rainfall varies from 10 to 40 cm. It is quite often erratic, so much so that the entire rainfall of the year may fall on a single day and the rest of the year may be dry. In India, water is solely a woman’s problem. From the time she is able to walk, she learns that it is her job to find and get water for the entire household. In her lifetime, she would have walked more than 1,000 miles to get water.

Locations: India, Indonesia, Philippines
