The water sector feels the effects of climate change. At the same time, better water management can help to tackle the climate change challenge. Our videos and readings to understand this critical nexus.
On March 22, we celebrate the World Water Day, which focuses this year on the interlinkages between water and climate change. “Everyone has a role to play”, said UN Secretary-General António Guterres in his official message.
