Join us at #CairoWaterWeek! We’re plumbing the depths of the connections between #water, #climatechange, and #resilience through NDCs, planning, #climatefinance and local #climateaction, with powerful examples excellence from #MENA and #Africa. And with great opening comments from the thought leader Walid Hakiki of #Egypt.

Water Tracker for National Climate Planning

World Water Week 2023 is just around the corner and we'll be there bridging the water and climate policy worlds!Partner harmonization - Providing a platform for closer collaboration, policy-dialogue and harmonization between partners;

It is also useful for line ministries, civil society, investment banks, aid agencies and other groups with a stake in evaluating the credibility and efficacy of national climate plans.

But, these plans typically neglect the strategic role of water in climate solutions. Water is the lifeblood of society, the economy and the natural environment. But climate change means that the availability of water for drinking, ecosystems, agriculture, industry and energy can no longer be assumed. With increasing competition for limited water resources, there will be difficult tradeoffs to make.

Why are our #netzero and #climatemitigation targets tangled up in blue? Come to our #climateweeknyc #unga session on aligning #waterstewardship with our #carbon ambitions. Is water the hidden catalyst for the low-carbon revolution? Simply put, water resilience means the ability of water-related policies, plans and investments to cope with climate-related impacts.

This webinar is the first in our new series ‘Futureproofing: Water and Climate Adaptation’. The series is focussed on adaptation strategy, practices, and financing for coastal areas, including islands and deltas. She is the first person to ever hold this incredibly important position, interleaving the #climatechange and water communities around common themes and missions.

Deep uncertainty describes a novel crisis in decision making: the analytical inability to distinguish between the likelihood of quite divergent future pathways, some of which may have disruptive and consequential economic, social and ecological impacts. Traditional responses by engineers, economics, planners, and resource managers to climate uncertainty have included robustness and flexibility. Both approaches assume that we can define a problem and its solution set in discrete and well-bounded terms.
