November 12, 14:30 - 15:45
This session addresses the critical role of water in supporting the objectives of the Declaration for Climate Relief, Recovery, and Peace. As climate impacts intensify, effective action in the water domain is essential to reduce vulnerabilities, build resilience, and support recovery pathways. The discussion will focus on identifying actionable pathways in water management that contribute to disaster relief, climate resilience, and sustainable peace, particularly in areas affected by climate-related risks and fragility. By fostering collaboration among key stakeholders, this session aims to pave the way for a dedicated Water Action Agenda that aligns with CRRP priorities and sets the foundation for a coalition committed to transformative action in water and climate.
A range of stakeholders have expressed interest in this Agenda. This roundtable discussion will be the first convening of partners for a coalition to build and implement this agenda.
