DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The guide to reporting supports countries in reporting on transboundary water cooperation for the reporting on SDG indicator 6.5.2 and under the Water Convention. The primary aim of the guide is to enhance the quality of national reports, which will ultimately strengthen their usefulness in informing decision-making and policy-making processes related to transboundary water cooperation at the national, basin or aquifer, regional and global levels. More specifically, the guide explains how the reporting template for reporting might be completed. It clarifies key terminology and provides practical examples of how certain questions might be answered. In addition, the guide offers guidance on how to organize the reporting process and how to utilize reporting to maximize its impact. The guide is therefore designed as a practical document for government experts who have the responsibility for conducting the reporting process and completing the template. The guide to reporting was formally requested (decision VIII/3) by the Meeting of the Parties to the Water Convention at its eight session (Nur-Sultan, 10-12 October 2018).

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Released every three years since March 2003, the United Nations World Water Development Report (WWDR), a flagship UN-Water report published by UNESCO, has become the voice of the United Nations system in terms of the state, use and management of the world's freshwater resources. The report is primarily targeted at national decision-makers and water resource managers, but is also aimed at educating and informing a broader audience, from governments to the private sector and civil society. It underlines the important roles water plays in all social, economic and environmental decisions, highlighting policy implications across various sectors, from local and municipal to regional and international levels. Similarly to the first two editions, this report includes a comprehensive and up-to-date assessment of several key challenge areas, such as water for food, energy and human health, and governance challenges such as institutional reform, knowledge and capacity-building, and financing, each produced by individual UN agencies.
