In March 2020, the world was uneasy with the COVID-19 pandemic. With a shortage of face masks, we were unsecured as wearing face masks seemed to be the only way to protect ourselves. In this documentary, we look into the supply chain of face masks, from raw materials to finished products, in the global context. The fact that face masks were difficult to attain cannot threaten our belief of mutual help and support.

The “Finite Water” documentary discusses global water concerns as seen through the eyes of an average person. After attending the Global Water Summit in Paris as an academic participant, it inspired me to make a documentary without having any experience in filmmaking. The film opens the discussion about water conservation, harvesting methods and adaptation to a new reality, where one could comprehend and develop awareness about global water concerns. Several interviews and discussions are conducted concerning water management and our future’s outlook. Our goal is to instill the idea that adaptation will take place in many places and developing new methods begins with observing what is happening around us. It all begins with one’s own thought process, fresh thinking and exponential changes. We hope to draw attention to how water concerns will affect us and open the discussion about future adaptation to such a significant change.
The effects of water shortages are being seen all over the world in our lifetime. Adapting to a changed reality takes precedent in a world of over 7 billion people. Hear what others have to say about water conservation, technological trends and sharing ideas with the next generation. Is it possible to ensure a future with clean water for everyone?

This book explores creative interdisciplinary and potentially transformative solutions to the current stalemate in contemporary water policy design. A more open policy conversation about water than exists at present is proposed – one that provides a space for the role of the imagination and is inclusive – of the arts and humanities, relevant stakeholders, including landholders and Indigenous peoples, as well as science, law and economics. Written for a wide audience, including practitioners and professional readers, as well as scholars and students, the book demonstrates the value of multiple disciplines, voices, perspectives, knowledges and different ways of relating to water. It provides a fresh and timely response to the urgent need for water policy that works to achieve sustainability, and may be better able to resolve complex environmental, social and cultural water issues. Utilising a broad range of evidentiary sources and case studies from Australia, New Zealand, Canada and elsewhere, the authors of this edited collection demonstrate how new ways of thinking and imagining water are not only possible but already practised, and growing in saliency and impact. The current dominance of narrower ways of conceptualising our relationship with water is critiqued, including market valuation and water privatisation, and more innovative alternatives are described, including those that recognise the importance of place-based stories and narratives, adopt traditional ecological knowledge and relational water appreciations, and apply cutting-edge behavioural and ecological systems science. The book highlights how innovative approaches drawing on a wide range of views may counter prevailing policy myopia, enable reflexive governance and transform water policy towards addressing water security questions and the broader challenges posed by the Anthropocene and the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
