The strategy document is accompanied by a video (below), explaining in more detail our four new global aims, which are:

• Aim 1 We will promote and secure poor people’s rights and access to safe water, improved hygiene and sanitation.
  
• Aim 2 We will support governments and service providers in developing their capacity to deliver safe water, improved hygiene and sanitation.
• Aim 3 We will advocate for the essential role of safe water, improved hygiene and sanitation in human
  development.
• Aim 4 We will further develop as an effective global organization recognized as a leader in our field and for living our values.
  

Our ambition is that by 2015 a further 25 million people will have access to safe water, improved hygiene and sanitation as a direct result of our work; and that by influencing the policies and practices of governments and service providers we will have reached a further 100 million people.

To achieve our aims we will look at the wider context affecting water and sanitation services including the marginalization of communities, rapid urbanization, increasingly stressed water
resources, a changing and unpredictable climate and economic and political instability.

Our work is driven by our values of being inclusive, inspiring, courageous, always learning, accountable and collaborative.
