We delve into the pressing issue of population growth, water scarcity, and water management and how they have intensified the strain on our water resources and infrastructure. We explore how the poor performance of entities responsible for maintaining water and sanitation systems has further exacerbated the situation. We discuss the complexities of South Africa's water supply chain, the challenges posed by the regulatory environment, and the critical need to manage water quality and ensure access to clean water. Joining us is Dr. Patrick Hlabela, a leading researcher specialising in hydraulic infrastructure engineering at the CSIR.
