Economic development and good health depended on access to clean water and sanitation. Therefore, because economic development and good health depended on access to clean water and sanitation, beginning in the early 1970s the World Bank, the World Health Organization (WHO), and others began a period of sustained interest in developing both for the billions without either. During the 1980s, two massive and wildly ambitious projects showed what was possible. The International Drinking Water Supply and Sanitation Decade and the Blue Nile Health Project aimed for nothing less than the total overhaul of the way water was developed. This was, according to the WHO, "development in the spirit of social justice."
经济发展和良好的健康状况取决于能否获得清洁水和卫生设施。因此，从 20 世纪 70 年代初开始，世界银行、世界卫生组织（世卫组织）和其他组织开始对数十亿没有清洁水和卫生设施的人持续关注如何提供清洁水和卫生设施。在 20 世纪 80 年代，两个规模庞大且野心勃勃的项目展示了这是可能的。国际饮用水供应和卫生十年计划和青尼罗河健康项目的目标是彻底改革供水方式。世卫组织表示，这是“社会正义精神下的发展”。
