Online talk: Water Justice: why water is the issue of our time, with Leana Hosea, Thursday 5th October, 7-8.30pm

Former BBC journalist and founder of Watershed Investigations Leana Hosea discusses why water is the issue of our time. She will explore some of the key water stories she has covered and flag up the challenges we face in the near future. For her documentary film 'Thirst For Justice', she explored how the marketisation of water led to a shocking lack of clean water for many communities. From the contamination of water in Flint, Michigan with lead, to uranium polluting drinking water sources on the Navajo Native American reservation, 'Thirst for Justice' shows what can happen when people have no rights to clean water. If Americans were unknowingly drinking contaminated water, could it be happening in the UK? For more information and to book a place go to
