PANORAMA OF THE PRIVATE SECTOR'S PARTICIPATION IN SANITATION 2021 A NEW SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC FRONTIER FOR BRAZIL Environmental impacts The efforts and investments for Brazil to achieve the universalization of water and sewage services are more than just the path to economic recovery. They can be considered the largest ongoing environ- mental programme in the country. Depollution of rivers and springs, recovery of degraded areas, use of renewable energies and sustainability are some of the invaluable gains that the advance of sanitation should provide to the country in years to come, with the new milestone of the sector. According to the National Water and Sani- tation Agency (ANA), Brazil has more than 83,000 kilometers of polluted rivers (2019). The country pours nearly 6,000 Olympic swimming pools a day of untreated sewage into the environment, according to the Trata Brasil Institute (2019). Achieving universalization of sewage treat- ment, with the large investments in the coming years, is the answer to radically mit- igate this daily damage to bodies of water. Sanitation will be the infra- structure sector with the greatest economic and envi- ronmental impact in Brazil, in coming years. Sanitation and ESG Faced with the challenge of universalization, there is a greater need for direction of the investments of the sector in ESG (Environ- mental, Social and Corporate Governance). Sanitation concessionaires adopt, as a principle, what we call ESG Management, which focuses on best practices to meet the demands of the en- vironment, society and share- holders, all at the same time. There are many examples of how to align with ESG principles. In this con- text, the possibilities are: the transfor- mation of sewage treatment plants into sources of raw materials and supplies, thereby promoting sustainability; the use of renewable energy; and encour- agement of the preservation of rivers and other natural resources. Sanitation and SDGs Clean water and sanitation is the 6th Sus- tainable Development Goal of the so-called UN 2030 Agenda. SDG 6 calls on the world to make sure of availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all. From this perspective, sanitation conces- sionaires play a fundamental role in the search for treatment of water and sewage as a human right to be ensured. 100 Social and environmental indicators of private operators (SPRIS 2019) From among private concessionaires, we collected the most relevant and important data about the socio-environmental per- formance of companies. The result shows a segment that quickly adapts to the de- mands made and enforced by the ESG. 101
