International Feminist Journal of Politics
Routledge Press, 2007
A Special Issue with guest editors' introductions, critical
essays, narratives, poetry, and book reviews that respond to a growing concern
for the unequal access men and women have to water in an increasingly fragile
physical environment.
“Consumers International (CI), which represents
consumer organizations in 115 countries, officially made the link between
women and water on International Women’s Day in 2004 when it announced that
water is a consumer right and that women are in the forefront of needing and
securing that right. This special issue is an expression of our deep
admiration for women all around the world who are putting their bodies and
their lives on the line for water.”
