Welcome to this week's edition of "Our Future Water" newsletter, diving into "Nature-Based Urban Solutions for Resilience." We are examining comprehensive strategies for reinventing urban planning to face climate change and increase urbanisation.
This issue unravels the transformative strategies in urban water management, featuring cities bravely adapting to climate […]
Welcome to Our Future Water's newsletter on "Financing Water Security: Bridging the Funding Gap," which explores the funding shortfalls in this sector and presents innovative financing mechanisms that can bridge these gaps.
Threatened by chronic underfunding, the sustainable and equitable management of water—essential for life and economic activity—is at risk. Proper water resources management, requiring substantial investments in infrastructure, technology, and conservation practices, is critical for promoting health, well-being, and biodiversity, especially in areas facing water scarcity or quality issues.
Underinvestment can exacerbate water scarcity, increase disease risk, degrade water quality, deplete groundwater, and heighten vulnerability to climate change, negatively affecting agricultural productivity, food security, and economic growth opportunities.
In this newsletter, we explore innovative financing mechanisms to fill the existing funding gaps in this sector.
Welcome to Our Future Water's newsletter on the concept of circular water economy, which aims to transform how we manage water resources by focusing on the 5Rs: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Recover, and Restore.
Faced with climate change and environmental degradation many cities are turning to Blue-Green Infrastructure (BGI) solutions to enhance climate resilience as well as restore the health of ecosystems.
