The 3rd International Forum on Water Security & Sustainability
Time:
Apr 21, 2021 -Apr 24, 2021
Location:
Nanjing,Jiangsu
Water lies at the heart of life and well-being, yet it is a finite resource which is quickly outpaced by the global demand in rapid growth. The UN SDG 6 aims at “availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all”, prioritizing the importance of water security and sustainability in the societal and environmental welfare. However, such welfare is challenged by the current water availability. On a global scale, more than two billion people live in countries experiencing high water stress. In China, 30% of its land area is suffering from high or extremely high water stress. Therefore, properly managed water has a major stake in the future. The success and resilience of water management is highly dependent on our technical innovations and institutional capacities, both of which are far from adequate to meet the challenges we face. Moreover, current world trends, such as global warming and political dynamics, are further weakening these capabilities. Global changes are bringing immensely profound impacts to the earth system and hence the future. We need to change our ways of thinking, living and managing to adapt to such global changes.
In 2015 and 2017, two forums on water security and sustainability have been held in Nanjing, attracting the attention of researchers both in China and around the world. During the second forum, Hohai University (HHU) and Nanjing Hydraulic Research Institute (NHRI) jointly launched the “Belt and Road Fund on Water security and Sustainability” and proposed a long-term plan to jointly hold a top-level forum every three years.
