World Water Day 2020: Water and Climate Change

In this session at World Water Week 2019, participants will learn more about the forthcoming 2020 World Water Day campaign and the World Water Development Report on the topic of water and climate change and learn about ways to get involved.
Water is an important piece in the mitigation puzzle but the single most important key to adaptation. Changes in water availability will impact food security and have already proven to trigger refugee dynamics and political instability. With a changing climate, characteristics of hydrological extreme events will change. More floods and more severe droughts will await us in future.
