UN Groundwater Summit 2022
Groundwater is invisible, and yet its impact is visible everywhere. On December 7 and 8, the UNESCO headquarters in Paris will hold the 2022 Groundwater Summit. The UN-Water Summit on Groundwater 2022 aims to bring attention to groundwater at the highest international level. The Summit will use the UN World Water Development Report 2022 as a baseline and the SDG 6 Global Acceleration Framework as a guideline to define actions towards more responsible and sustainable use and protection of this vital natural resource.
Day 3: Launch of the Transboundary Water Cooperation Coalition
On December 8, the special session of the UN-Water Summit on Groundwater will launch the Transboundary Water Cooperation Coalition – a multistakeholder partnership of governments, intergovernmental organizations, regional integration organizations, IFIs, academic institutions and civil society organizations – that will work to promote and support the sustaining and the advancement of transboundary water cooperation.
Rector Eddy Moors will be taking part in the discussions representing IHE Delft.
