World’s largest user of groundwater for agriculture looks to solar for a more sustainable future.  

The principles of integrated water resource management insist on taking a basin-wide or systemwide approach rather than addressing surface water and groundwater issues separately.

A new IWMI partnership with Digital Earth Africa (DEA) will leverage state of the art remote-sensing and data management technologies to enhance the ability of African Governments, communities and companies to better manage their water.

A new International Water Management Institute (IWMI) partnership with Digital Earth Africa (DEA [1]) will leverage state of the art remote-sensing and data management technologies to enhance the ability of African Governments, communities and companies to better manage their water.

Claudia Sadoff, Director General of IWMI, argues that our efforts to mitigate the impacts of climate change and address food security could be counterproductive if we don’t pay more attention to water and its use.

“One of the big challenges of dealing with water resource management is: How are you going to manage something if you can't measure it?” said William Rex, senior adviser at the International Water Management Institute.

Scientists at the International Water Management Institute (IWMI) were invited to contribute to a number of chapters in WWDR 2020, including chapter 4 (Water-related extremes and risk management).

Water-related natural disasters are major impediments to human security and sustainable socioeconomic development. Climate change has made extreme weather events more severe by altering their frequency, timing, intensity and duration.
