Resumen
Descripción
The NENA region already exposed to chronic shortage of water will face in the coming decades a severe intensification of water scarcity due to several drivers, including demographic growth and its related food demands, urbanization, energy demand and overall socio-economic development. Furthermore, NENA is experiencing more frequent, intense extreme events (in particular droughts) as a consequence of climate change. The project aims to support this transformational change and aims to set the proper framework for implementing the 2030 agenda for water efficiency and productivity (SDG 6.4) and define the safe boundaries for effective water sustainability.
