WHY WATER
Water and Peace

When properly managed, water can be a peacemaking platform for long lasting
cooperation

Water cooperation

Water is a growing concern in many parts of the world. Countries can improve
their water resilience through transboundary water cooperation over shared
waters.

Indigenous knowledge

Indigenous peoples are the custodians of many of the world’s most fragile and
important ecosystems. They also possess invaluable knowledge about
sustainability and resilience, so they have a vital role in protecting our
environment.

Water and the 2030 Agenda

In 2015, the global community launched the 2030 Agenda, with 17 Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs) that should be reached by 2030. Some progress has been
made, but for most of the goals, the world is not on track to meet the deadline.
Water can help us do better.

Water in landscapes

A growing number of people, societies and companies are discovering the power of
resilient landscapes. It is still possible to shift to more sustainable
practices that recharge water, restore soil health, sequester carbon, and
strengthen biodiversity – but we need to make the transformation now.

Agriculture and water

How to increase the productivity of agriculture around the world through better
water management.

Groundwater

Groundwater is the regulator of the entire freshwater cycle, but its
invisibility makes it difficult to manage and protect.

Rivers

While we all depend heavily on rivers for our survival, many rivers are under
constant threat from unsustainable human activities

Water scarcity

Insufficient supply and inadequate infrastructure leaves millions of people in
the world without water.

Source-to-Sea

The source-to-sea approach focuses on the strong connection between what happens
on land, along waterways, and in the sea.

Water and climate

The climate crisis is essentially a water crisis. When we treat it as such, we
get new tools to mitigate climate change and adapt to consequences that are
unavoidable.

Water governance

Many of the most pressing challenges in the world are about water: too little,
too much or too inferior. Such challenges can only be effectively addressed
through adequate governance of available water resources.

The impact of COVID-19

The global COVID-19 pandemic has pushed millions of people back into poverty and
exposed unacceptable gaps between the rich and the poor. One in three people are
still not able to wash their hands with soap and water at home.

Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH)

More than two billion people in the world lack safely managed drinking water and
twice as many lack safely managed sanitation, making WASH one of the most urgent
development challenges.

PERSPECTIVES
Youth and water

More and more young people offer important contributions to solving the growing
water challenges they are inheriting.

Human rights and water

Having access to water and sanitation has been recognized as a human right since
2010. But water is also essential to ensuring the fulfilment of many other
rights.

Gender and water

To improve water governance, we need to take a close look at gender roles.
