UN-Water
2024
United Nations Water (UN-Water) provides coordination among UN agencies to harmonize efforts towards water-related policies. With over 30 UN organizations implementing water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) programs, UN-Water serves as an oversight agency ensuring that the United Nations delivers a consistent response to water-related challenges. The organization accomplishes this by informing policies, providing quality data and information related to water, and coordinating World Water Day among UN organizations.
UN-Water publishes a flagship report every year on World Water Day, titled the World Water Development Report – a publication focusing on a variety of water-related issues with the goal of informing global decision-makers on sustainable water use. The organization also publishes reports and documents on a wide array of topics from climate change to water security. United Nations Water hosts a data portal allowing users to select specific water-related indicators and view the resulting data in charts, tables, or a map format. Also included on the site is a water facts portal, an information portal on Sustainable Development Goal Six, and a news portal.
