SUMMARY:UN 2023 Water Conference
DESCRIPTION:Water is a fundamental part of all aspects of life. Water is inextricably linked to the three pillars of sustainable development\, and it integrates social\, cultural\, economic and political values. It is crosscutting and supports the achievement of many SDGs through close linkages with climate\, energy\, cities\, the environment\, food security\, poverty\, gender equality and health\, amongst others. With climate change profoundly affecting our economies\, societies and environment\, water is indeed the biggest deal breaker to achieve the internationally agreed water-related goals and targets\, including those contained in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. \nThe Conference\, co-hosted by the Governments of Tajikistan and the Netherlands\, will feature an opening and closing ceremony\, six plenary meetings and five multi-stakeholder interactive dialogues. It will also feature a number of high-level special events and side events organized by Member States\, the UN system and other stakeholders. \nThe outcome of the Conference will be a summary of the Conference proceedings and new commitments\, pledges and actions by Governments and all stakeholders towards achieving SDG 6 and other water-related goals and targets\, compiled in the Water Action Agenda. \n\nThe UN 2023 Water Conference and the Water Action Agenda will unite the world for water. The key building blocks of the Water Action Agenda are: \n\ncommitment to action\nsustained and scalable implementation\nfollow-up and review processes\n\nThese blocks will enable replication and scaling up of what works and bring successful solutions to global scale. \nMatt BirdMatt Bird is the Founder\, CEO\, and Editor-in-Chief of ESG News.
