To examine the implementation practically, the paper presents two case examples: one from Ghana and other one from South Africa. Wide range of different kind of articles, books and journals were read through to find the answers to the research questions and beside the databases the research was made in libraries in Helsinki, Finland and in Krems an der Donau, Austria.
1 Introduction
Water is a need for all the living organs: no water, no life. Water supply services are important part of humans’ lives and in high income countries people are used to having daily, easy access to clean water through a water tap. It is a startling matter when one begins to wonder what it means to have direct access to water source, since it is not reality for all the people in the world. According to WHO, in year 2014 700 million people did not have access to clean water re-source, and these people were all in developing areas. The population growth and a growing need for water makes providing pure water more challenging. Water flows unequally in nature and some areas are naturally drier, but some areas face lack of water because of the economic situation.
