In Summary


    World Water Week 2025, organised by the Stockholm International Water Institute (SIWI), brings together leaders, experts, civil society, businesses, and youth to discuss water, environment, and development.

    This year’s theme, “Water for Climate Action,” highlights the urgent need for solutions linking water to climate change.

    Sessions focus on water scarcity, sanitation, pollution, and sustainable use, while addressing disparities faced by low-income countries, rural communities, children, and minority ethnic groups.

    According to the World Health Organization, billions of people worldwide still lack access to safe water, sanitation services, and hygiene services, underscoring the scale of the challenge.
