Water security is a concept that was developed by the United Nations and other global organisations. The concept dates to the 1990s but has proliferated over time. It has evolved in a multi-dimensional policy concept that covers areas such as water for; people, their health and wellbeing, ecosystems, economic development, food production, and climate hazards. As a holistic approach, it depends on transboundary stakeholder collaborations, water governance, peace and political stability and financing.
Water security is deeply interconnected to sustainability, well-being, ecosystem, social and economic development, and climate change. It is a foundation for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and a basis for policy development, sustainable water management, setting priorities as well as long-term development beyond SDGs. The impacts of climate change, global demographics, fast urbanisation, social and structural inequalities make cities an especially tough challenge for water security. The question is how do we ensure we are leaving no one behind?
This is the first webinar of a 鈥淲ater Security Webinar Series鈥� where we are proposing to raise awareness about the challenges and opportunities around water security globally, engaging with key sectors (e.g., utilities, industry, agri-food) and increasing the participation of key stakeholders (e.g., young water professionals, policy makers) and regions (e.g., global south).
This first webinar discussed Water Security in relation to inclusivity and the SDGs. It was delivered in English and Spanish, to encourage a wider participation and to help with IWA鈥檚 strategy to become more visible and attractive to current and prospective IWA members in Spanish speaking regions.
