Mr.
Miguel Araujo (Director, Corporate Strategy, Partnerships
and Communication and former Minister of the Environment,

Natural ecosystems provide a range of services
that help sustain communities. These include, among
other things provision of clean water and sanitation
through natural filters like wetlands, etc. IUCN
works with communities to find a sustainable and
equitable distribution of the costs and benefits
of natural resource use and changes in land use.
Programs like SEED as well as the Water & Nature
Initiative use multistakeholder consultation processes
and partnerships as a basis for action and innovation
of for sustainable natural resource utilization.

Mr.
Jaque Labre, Senior Water Adviser, SUEZ
Interview reviews the activities of SUEZ in water,
sanitation and gas. Forty million oftheir clients
live in developing countries. Of this number, 8
million live below the poverty line. There are
many people without official land titles in urban
slum areas that continue to go without access to
these services. Gains can be made through increased
efficiency of water utilities. Once the quality
of the service is improved, people are more willing
to pay and cross subsidy systems become possible.
