And there was some incredibly exciting organizing that happened around the world with partners in communities facing water crises, water system privatization threats, and more. Allies and partners from across the African continent, as part of the Our Water Our Right Africa Coalition, spent the day building power with and uplifting the voices of communities most impacted by water injustice. They met with decision-makers and journalists from across the continent to build a deeper understanding of what’s truly at stake when we turn control of water systems over to corporations. And beyond World Water Day, a team of organizers on our water campaign traveled to Houston, TX to [celebrate our recent coalition win with local partners](. While they were there, they also held a community meeting, met with local public officials to educate them on the dangers of corporate takeovers of public water systems, and did some long-term strategic planning with our allies. On top of World Water Day, here are just a few of the ways that you have collectively been challenging corporate power in the past month: Demanding justice for Flint 10 years into the water crisis [Sign reading Flint Lives Matter](We spent this month hatching some plans in deep partnership with our allies at Flint Rising to recognize the upcoming tragic milestone of 10 years since the start of Flint’s water crisis. The people of Flint are still without clean water a decade later and no one has been held accountable for their role. We are going to make sure that fact is not forgotten. Stay tuned for much more on the anniversary of the Flint water crisis in the coming weeks. And in the meantime, [you can support both Flint Rising and Corporate Accountability’s water campaign by donating here](.

Standing in solidarity with the people of Palestine We call for a permanent ceasefire and an end to genocide, profiteering, and occupation now! Our hearts continue to be broken daily by the images and news coming out of Gaza and the West Bank. We mourn the loss of all lives -- Palestinian, Israeli, and other nationals -- on those lands.
