Last week, the UN declared water and sanitation a human right, but since that is not going to improve water scarcity around the world tomorrow, here is a glimpse at what it will mean—with some generous insight from Ned Breslin of Water for People.

Ned Breslin tackles these questions in the interview:

• Will the recognition of water as a human right slow the privatization of water by international corporations?
• Who gets to make all of these decisions?
