Sectoral guide: Water security Green Climate Fund (2022)
Climate change is evident around the globe, and it requires bold actions now to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Paris Agreement. In addition, water is one of the world’s most essential commodities and demand for water service has increased tremendously following population growth, economic development and changing consuming patterns. Facing increasing demand for this scarce resource, the global water business seems to offer investment opportunities. There is a building momentum to scale up the global climate response. Translating this momentum into action requires significant paradigm shift and greater investments in a different set of inclusive assets that address water security and provides sector-based or economy wide co-benefits to beneficiaries, including job creation, health benefits, and improved resilience.
