In the Ministerial Declaration "The Future We Want"[35], world leaders affirmed their commitment to the human right to safe drinking water and sanitation, to the progressive realisation of access to safe and affordable drinking water and sanitation for all (i.e. beyond Johannesburg and the MDGs) and to significantly improve the implementation of integrated water resource management.

The EU has also reaffirmed that "all States bear human rights obligations regarding access to safe drinking water, which must be available, physically accessible, affordable and acceptable"[7].

Implicit in this are the right of men and women to be informed of and to have access to safe, effective, affordable and acceptable methods of fertility regulation of their choice, and the right of access to appropriate healthcare services that will enable women to go safely through pregnancy and childbirth and provide couples with the best chance of having a healthy infant’.
