Getting their daily water supply around the world, people and animals. Sometimes the journey to the water source is long and tiring.

BBC World Service journeys around the world to the sharp end of water provision; from Asia to Africa to the Americas.

Find out about people's struggle to get sufficient water for themselves, their cattle and their crops. Join them on their life-preserving trips to the nearerst water source - a well, river or standpipe within minutes, hours or days of their homes.
