Partnerships and Cooperation for Water: The main…

The United Nations World Water Development Report (WWDR) is the UN system's principal authoritative report on water, providing decision-makers with the critical knowledge and the tools necessary to formulate and implement sustainable water policies and actions. Launched annually on World Water Day (March 22nd), this year's edition, titled partnerships and cooperation for water, is uniquely poised to inform and inspire the dialogues and deliberations scheduled to take place at the UN 2023 Water Conference. Building on the report's findings, this side event will highlight relevant experiences at local, regional and national levels in Italy as well as in other countries. The production of the report, funded entirely by the Italian government, is coordinated and published by the UNESCO World Water Assessment Programme (WWAP) on behalf of the UN Water members and partners, and represents a shining example of the United Nations' delivering as one' partnership.
