Poorly regulated tourism development in Goa is: • Depleting groundwater and wells • Polluting waterways and beaches • Appropriating public supplies to the detriment of communities and livelihoods • Forcing households to abandon wells and depend on limited and unreliable piped supplies

Raise awareness of the issues with UK tourists and lobby the Government of Goa to put water rights of communities first and implement the recommendations of the report, Reclaiming Water Rights.
