UNESCO MAR

Innovative solutions are vital to tackle challenges to water security
and climate resilience. This book presents 28 real-life examples of
Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) from around the world, where, at
village to state level, people have collaborated to improve quantity
and quality of water supplies and buffer them against drought and
emergencies.

MAR has been proven to produce a wealth of benefits from integrated management of a wide range of conventional and un-conventional water
resources, paving the way for global adoption to achieve sustainable
development goals for water.

WMO State of Global Water Resources

The State of Global Water Resources report series offers a comprehensive and consistent overview of water resources worldwide, portraying the state of hydrological variables over the course of a year. The report offers a systematic and standardized analysis of water
resources at a global scale, which responds to the main outcomes of the UN 2023 Water Conference, which called for an “Operational Global Water Information System to support water, climate and land management for socioeconomic resilience, ecological sustainability
and social inclusion by 2030”

The information presented in the report serves as a valuable resource for policymakers and decision makers, as well as water and disaster risk reduction professionals, contributing to a better understanding of global freshwater status and trends.
