Global Water Security

Did you know that water security is more than just about access to drinking water? It’s a dynamic puzzle encompassing aspects like sanitation, health, economic safety, and more! ?? 

? We recently dove into the UN-Water’s comprehensive assessment, evaluating water security for 7.78 billion people across 186 countries. The findings are eye-opening! ?? 

? Alarmingly, 72% of the global population lives in water-insecure conditions, with over 8% facing critical water scarcity. ?? The report delves into 10 components, from drinking water to economic safety, revealing stark disparities and vulnerabilities across regions. ?️? 

? The Water Action Decade aims for sustainable water development, but the report highlights gaps and challenges. ?? 

? So, what can we do? ? Let’s join hands to raise awareness, drive policy changes, and accelerate progress. ?? 

? Wondering how you can contribute? If you’re passionate about global water security, if you’re intrigued by the complexities of water governance, or if you simply want to learn more about the state of our world’s water, get connected and join us for a better resource use. ??
