Wide shot of watershed \u003cbr/\u003eWorldwide demand for water is rising just as access to safe drinking water and sanitation remains inadequate in much of the developing world according to the United Nations. \u003cbr/\u003eOfficials at the World Water Forum, held from 16-22 March in Istanbul, Turkey are calling for better management to alleviate water shortages.\u003cbr/\u003eIn the huge city of Jakarta polluted water flows past the city's poorest regions, putting over 12 million at risk from water related diseases. \u003cbr/\u003eThe lakes at Gunung Gede Pangrango National Park are an oasis of tranquility. \u003cbr/\u003eNearby the Indonesian capital of Jakarta gets its freshwater for free from some 60 rivers originating in this reserve. \u003cbr/\u003eHowever by the time the water reaches homes in the poorest areas it is polluted and unfit for human consumption. \u003cbr/\u003eAn IUCN report of a new compilation of case studies, published to coincide with the World Water Forum, held from 16-22 March in Istanbul, Turkey, suggests that protecting watersheds provides many of the world's megacities with freshwater - and saves billions of dollars. \u003cbr/\u003eThe Asian Development Bank revealed in a recent report that the Citarum river supports a population of 28 million people and delivers a fifth of Indonesia's gross domestic product.\u003cbr/\u003eCrucially, it also provides up to 80 percent of water supply to the sprawling capital city Jakarta to its north. \u003cbr/\u003eBut in the city, human waste rubbish and chemicals leave the once-clear springs of Jakarta's river a shade of murky brown.  \u003cbr/\u003eRapid urbanisation and economic development over the last few decades have seen a sharp rise in untreated household sewage and industrial waste dumped in the river.\u003cbr/\u003eBut millions rely on this water for bathing, cleaning and even drinking. \u003cbr/\u003eDue to efforts of the government and environmentalists to raise awareness about water conservation, people are beginning to respond. \u003cbr/\u003eResidents of Nanjung have worked hard to change their habits and keep the river clean. \u003cbr/\u003eThey received a communal septic tank for their village in 2005 and took care of its maintenance since. \u003cbr/\u003eBy living a cleaner life, they have noticed that the fresh water supply in their homes has improved.\u003cbr/\u003eSoenardhie Yogantara works for a local non-governmental group which is campaigning for a community-based initiative in environmental care.\u003cbr/\u003eHe says that better water management is urgently needed to prevent a health crisis for the 12 million people who rely on the river for their water supply. \u003cbr/\u003eAn inter-ministerial task force was created in 2006 to clean up the rivers that run through Jakarta within 20 years and preserve watersheds in the surrounding areas.\u003cbr/\u003eThe government says that all shareholders must work together, local people, local authorities, industries, in order to solve the water crisis. \u003cbr/\u003eSome people living illegally on river banks must be resettled to a better location to restore the river.\u003cbr/\u003eIndustries will have to follow closely a strict code of waste management or face heavy penalties.\u003cbr/\u003eHowever the government says that cleaning up the river will take time. \u003cbr/\u003eMasnellyarti Hilman, Deputy Minister of Nature Conservation says \"we are working on a programme consisting of upper catchment areas, downstream areas as well as coastal areas. We hope within 20 years, we can clean up these rivers. We cannot do it in a short time period.\"\u003cbr/\u003eAt a local water treatment plant officials monitor the water quality. \u003cbr/\u003eThis 24-hour private facility in central Jakarta is expected to pump out two-thousand litres of fresh water every second. \u003cbr/\u003eAlmost a million people, who live in the city, depend on it for their daily water supply.\u003cbr/\u003eMuzaki Irawan, the Section Head of Water Treatment Facility, says that additional chemicals are now needed to purify the water, raising the costs of treatment.  \u003cbr/\u003eBack on the river bank a mother washes her child in dirty water flowing past her home. \u003cbr/\u003eLocal woman Leni Ahmad says the river water is not safe to drink, but they do use it \"for taking a bath or washing vegetables, dishes and clothes\". \u003cbr/\u003eHilman says that restoring watersheds is a priority for the Indonesian government adding that water will become ever more important in future as the climate changes. \u003cbr/\u003eMark Smith, Head of IUCN's Water Programme, is at the Water Conference in Istanbul. \u003cbr/\u003eHe says that water quality in mega rivers can be improved over time, with investment and community dedication. \u003cbr/\u003eSmith cites the examples if the Rhine in northern Europe, the Danube in central Europe and the Zarq river in Amman, Jordan. \u003cbr/\u003eUNESCO says that half a billion people in Africa lack access to adequate sanitation, and that 5,000 children die daily from diarrhoea, a disease that can be prevented with clean water. \u003cbr/\u003eThe agency say the number of people living on less than $1.25 a day is roughly the same as the number without access to safe drinking water.\u003cbr/\u003eIUCN = the International Union for Conservation
