Ideology of water privatization stronger than ever at the World Bank

Dear Friends,

If you thought that the World Bank had softened its stand on being one of the main agents of water privatization, please see the articles and report below.

The push for increasing water pricing and the ‘evidence’ that water privatization is actually positive, demonstrates that the ideology of water privatization is stronger than ever with the Bank.

This despite years of evidence to the contrary! The PPIAF has also been soundly discredited as a mechanism for water privatization, but nice that they could fund this little study to continue to promote their neo-liberal agenda!

In solidarity,

Anil
