Systems Approach to achieving Water Security in a Changing Climate
The Hub has been invited to lead a side event at the UN Water Conference, taking place 22-24 March 2023 in New York.
Our session, titled 'Systems Approach to achieving Water Security in a Changing Climate', will take place on Wednesday 22 March, 17:00-18:15 EDT / 21:00-22:15 GMT, Conference Room B, UN Headquarters.
During the session, our panel of experts will explore the value of a systems approach to water security in a changing climate through different lenses, for example, sectoral lens and place-based lens. They will draw upon cross-cutting themes like interdisciplinarity, gender, education, and data, and cover topics including water and health, water and food security, and water policy.
