Addressing the connection between food and water from a human rights perspective requires the consideration of environmental and public health aspects. While global water and food crises are often attributed to scarcity, the Special Rapporteur on the human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation, Pedro Arrojo Agudo, argues that tackling these crises is mainly a governance issue, and that developing new governance strategies based on human rights is crucial, including ensuring the sustainability of ecosystems and the democratic management of essential resources. He proposes an agroecological transition that integrates a human rights perspective into food systems and water management, connecting human rights to water and food and addressing the sustainability and governance challenges of the global food and water crises, particularly in the context of climate change.
