Water

Every drop counts. From smart irrigation to equitable access to water, learn more about the work partners are driving towards a decarbonized, water-secure world for all.

Our water system is in crisis, contributing to climate change, nature loss and poverty. Reliable water systems will sustain a healthier, more resilient and more equitable future.

Governments, businesses, cities, farmers, and communities are working together to improve how we manage and use water. They're also finding ways to reduce the environmental impact of providing water services like sanitation. These actions help tackle climate change by cutting emissions and making our communities more resilient.

When both public and private sectors join forces, they can make water system improvements a key part of fighting climate change. This doesn't just reduce emissions but also makes us better prepared for climate challenges, protects nature, and helps us achieve sustainable development goals.

We framed key actions to drive regional systems transformations towards net zero, climate resilient and nature positive development by 2030.

We support actions across Arica, Asia and the Latin America and the Caribbean to limit water losses, restore rivers and wetlands, improve sanitation and hygiene access, decarbonize wastewater in 20 countries and tackle the food-water nexus.

By scaling up effective measures, we can address adaptation gaps, increase resilience and halve global emissions.
