Enjoyed my 'Jive Talking' podcast episode with David Zetland of Leiden University College (The Hague). We discussed enabling environment challenges in the water sector and how to overcome them.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Prof Tony Allan who played a significant role at @kclgeography over many years, & whose contribution to the field of water management was immense.

A friend, mentor & colleague Prof Tony Allen just passed away. His contribution to the field of #water will be remembered for generations. @kclgeography & @KingsWaterKCL @Kings_SGA will be lot poorer without his presence. I am 💔. May he rest in peace. He will be dearly missed.

Thank you @mitchallenge for the cool socks. It’s always a pleasure to be a volunteer reviewer for the IDEAS program. Lots of brilliant minds in business and STEM fields are finding practical ways to make positive impacts in the world.

Actions by governments to promote hand hygiene, including providing infrastructure, and activities to ensure access to water and sanitation, are critical at this time. So what have countries already put in place?

A failure to invest in the provision of #WASH services for all & to promote strict hygiene protocols on a large scale can be disastrous in combating #COVID19 in countries like #Nigeria. There is political will more than ever. #100andChange can be an impetus for a global solution.

Despite being critical in the COVID-19 response, improving hygiene is mostly absent in donor commitments to fight the pandemic, #WaterAid. < 15% of countries have enough funding to implement #WASH plans. IPC/WASH are a priority NOW. #BASICS #100andChange
