📣 US Government Backs Water Unite Impact to Fund the Water Sector’s Missing Middle in Emerging Markets Water Unite is pleased to announce a US$7.5 million investment from the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) in Water Unite Impact (WUI). Currently, 771 million people do not have access to clean water, and 1.7 billion do not have adequate sanitation facilities. Climate change is expected to cause 52% of the world's population to live in water-stressed areas by 2050. WUI, a strategic partnership between FCA-regulated impact investment manager Wellers Impact and global non-profit Water Unite, is committed to providing innovative companies with the capital, expertise, and networks they require for significant growth. The DFC funding will help WUI accelerate its mission of driving meaningful change in the sector and help address the significant funding gap in the water sector, closing the critical "missing middle".
