Keen to get an overview of GWP’s work and impact? Look no further. Our 2023 annual report presents snapshots of a year of inspiring results, and includes stories that illustrate how our work advances global and national water security objectives and partnerships.
Last week, GWP – the only intergovernmental organisation solely focused on water – participated in a wide range of high-level and influential dialogues at the 10th World Water Forum, the world’s largest multi-stakeholder water conference, held once every three years.
If you are concerned about adapting to climate change – as you should be – then water is your principal worry. Suddenly there seems to be too much, or too little, or sometimes both, at different times. And the pattern is just too unpredictable. Which is just one of the reasons we need to start using AI.
As we approach the 10th World Water Forum in Bali, Indonesia, themed “Water for Shared Prosperity”, it is an opportune time to take note of the current state of water management in the world. How are we doing in managing our water resources, and what is the outlook for the future of water management? Will the world be able to achieve water resources management in a way that will continue to enable our society to grow?
