15. PART 2: THE WORLD’S RESPONSE TO THE WATER CRISIS RECENT HISTORY: UN MILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALS [1990-2015] THE NEW SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS [2016-2030]

16. MILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALS [MDG] IN THE YEAR 2000: 189 COUNTRIES SIGN EARTH CHARTER 192 COUNTRIES SIGNED THE UN MILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALS (MDGS) MDG #7 “ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY” TARGETS FOR WATER AND SANITATION [WASH]: BY THE YEAR 2015 REDUCE BY ONE HALF THE PERCENTAGE OF THE WORLD’S POPULATION WHO DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO IMPROVED DRINKING WATER SOURCE AND TO IMPROVED SANITATION [1990 BASE YEAR]

17. OTHER MDGS* ERADICATE EXTREME POVERTY AND HUNGER UNIVERSAL PRIMARY EDUCATION GENDER EQUALITY REDUCE CHILD MORTALITY IMPROVE MATERNAL HEALTH COMBAT HIV/AIDS/MALARIA/OTHER DISEASES GLOBAL PARTNERSHIPS FOR DEVELOPMENT *Water connects to many problems in developing world

18. WAS THE MDG FOR WATER/SANITATION A SUCCESS? HTTP://WWW.UN.ORG/SUSTAINABLEDEVELOPMENT/WATER-AND-SANITATION/ THE GOAL WAS MET AHEAD OF SCHEDULE FOR DRINKING WATER : “BETWEEN 1990 AND 2015, THE PROPORTION OF THE GLOBAL POPULATION USING AN IMPROVED DRINKING WATER SOURCE HAS INCREASED FROM 76 PER CENT TO 91 PER CENT; 2.6 BILLION PEOPLE HAVE GAINED ACCESS TO IMPROVED DRINKING WATER SOURCES SINCE 1990, BUT 663 MILLION PEOPLE ARE STILL WITHOUT” THE GOAL FOR SANITATION WAS MISSED BUT SOME PROGRESS WAS MADE: STILL “2.4 BILLION PEOPLE LACK ACCESS TO BASIC SANITATION SERVICES, SUCH AS TOILETS OR LATRINES” THERE WAS INSUFFICIENT FOCUS IN SEVERAL AREA: GENDER [NOTE: INADEQUATE GENDER-CENTRIC DATA]; POLLUTION [NOTE: 80% OF WASTEWATER RECEIVES NO TREATMENT]; INEQUITY REGARDING THE POOREST OF THE POOR [NOTE: THE LOWEST QUINTILE HAVE MADE ESSENTIALLY NO PROGRESS UNDER THE MDG FOR WATER]

19. 2016-2030: THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS [SDG]

20. GOAL 6: ENSURE ACCESS TO WATER AND SANITATION FOR ALL HTTP://WWW.UN.ORG/SUSTAINABLEDEVELOPMENT/WATER-AND-SANITATION/ BY 2030, ACHIEVE UNIVERSAL AND EQUITABLE ACCESS TO SAFE AND AFFORDABLE DRINKING WATER FOR ALL BY 2030, ACHIEVE ACCESS TO ADEQUATE AND EQUITABLE SANITATION AND HYGIENE FOR ALL AND END OPEN DEFECATION, PAYING SPECIAL ATTENTION TO THE NEEDS OF WOMEN AND GIRLS AND THOSE IN VULNERABLE SITUATIONS BY 2030, IMPROVE WATER QUALITY BY REDUCING POLLUTION, ELIMINATING DUMPING AND MINIMIZING RELEASE OF HAZARDOUS CHEMICALS AND MATERIALS, HALVING THE PROPORTION OF UNTREATED WASTEWATER AND SUBSTANTIALLY INCREASING RECYCLING AND SAFE REUSE GLOBALLY BY 2030, SUBSTANTIALLY INCREASE WATER-USE EFFICIENCY ACROSS ALL SECTORS AND ENSURE SUSTAINABLE WITHDRAWALS AND SUPPLY OF FRESHWATER TO ADDRESS WATER SCARCITY AND SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCE THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE SUFFERING FROM WATER SCARCITY

21. GOAL 6: ENSURE ACCESS TO WATER AND SANITATION FOR ALL [CONTINUED] HTTP://WWW.UN.ORG/SUSTAINABLEDEVELOPMENT/WATER-AND-SANITATION/ BY 2030, IMPLEMENT INTEGRATED WATER RESOURCES MANAGEMENT AT ALL LEVELS, INCLUDING THROUGH TRANSBOUNDARY COOPERATION AS APPROPRIATE BY 2020, PROTECT AND RESTORE WATER-RELATED ECOSYSTEMS, INCLUDING MOUNTAINS, FORESTS, WETLANDS, RIVERS, AQUIFERS AND LAKES BY 2030, EXPAND INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AND CAPACITY-BUILDING SUPPORT TO DEVELOPING COUNTRIES IN WATER- AND SANITATION-RELATED ACTIVITIES AND PROGRAMMES, INCLUDING WATER HARVESTING, DESALINATION, WATER EFFICIENCY, WASTEWATER TREATMENT, RECYCLING AND REUSE TECHNOLOGIES SUPPORT AND STRENGTHEN THE PARTICIPATION OF LOCAL COMMUNITIES IN IMPROVING WATER AND SANITATION MANAGEMENT

22. SOME UN STATISTICS ON THE WATER CRISIS HTTP://WWW.UN.ORG/SUSTAINABLEDEVELOPMENT/WP-CONTENT/UPLOADS/2016/06/WHY-IT-MATTERS_SANITATION_1P.PDF “WATER SCARCITY AFFECTS MORE THAN 40 PERCENT O F THE GLOBAL POPULATION AND IS PROJECTED TO RISE.” “MORE THAN 80 PERCENT OF WASTEWATER RESULTING FROM HUMAN ACTIVITIES IS DISCHARGED INTO RIVERS OR SEA WITHOUT ANY TREATMENT, LEADING TO POLLUTION.” “MORE THAN 2 MILLION PEOPLE DIE EVERY YEAR FROM DIARRHOEAL DISEASES. POOR HYGIENE AND UNSAFE WATER ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR NEARLY 90 PERCENT OF THESE DEATHS AND MOSTLY AFFECT CHILDREN.”; “MORE THAN 800 CHILDREN DIE EVERY DAY FROM DIARRHOEAL DISEASES LINKED TO POOR HYGIENE”

23. SOME UN STATISTICS ON THE WATER CRISIS [CONTINUED] HTTP://WWW.UN.ORG/SUSTAINABLEDEVELOPMENT/WP-CONTENT/UPLOADS/2016/06/WHY-IT-MATTERS_SANITATION_1P.PDF “EXTENDING BASIC WATER AND SANITATION SERVICES TO THE UNSERVED WOULD COST US$28.4 BILLION PER YEAR FROM 2015 TO 2030, OR 0.10 PER CENT OF THE GLOBAL PRODUCT OF THE 140 COUNTRIES INCLUDED IN ITS STUDY” THE ECONOMIC IMPACT OF NOT INVESTING IN WATER AND SANITATION COSTS AN ENORMOUS 4.3 PER CENT OF SUB-SAHARAN AFRICAN GDP. THE WORLD BANK ESTIMATES THAT 6.4 PER CENT OF INDIA’S GDP IS LOST DUE TO ADVERSE ECONOMIC IMPACTS AND COSTS OF INADEQUATE SANITATION

24. SOME IMPLICATIONS OF THE WORLD WATER CRISIS HEALTH: EG, OVER A THOUSAND CHILDREN DIE EACH DAY FROM WATER-RELATED ISSUES ECONOMIC: DECREASED PRODUCTION; PEOPLE REMOVED FROM THE WORKFORCE HUNGER: THE FOOD SUPPLY IS VERY WATER DEPENDENT HUMAN DIGNITY AND FAIRNESS: UN HAS DECLARED ACCESS TO WATER/SANITATION TO BE BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS BUT 663 MILLION PEOPLE DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO AN IMPROVED DRINKING WATER SOURCE, 2.4 BILLION DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO IMPROVED SANITATION, AND OVER ONE BILLION PRACTICE OPEN DEFACATION GENDER BIAS: WOMEN KEPT FROM GENERATING INCOME, TENDING TO CHILDREN, AND OBTAINING AN EDUCATION INEQUITIES: THE POOREST OF THE POOR SUFFER MOST AND HAVE NOT MADE MUCH PROGRESS SOURCE: UN SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS REPORT, 2016

25. WHAT ARE THE CAUSES [DRIVERS] OF THE GLOBAL WATER CRISIS? -- MISMANAGEMENT OF WATER? -- POPULATION INCREASES/DISTRIBUTION -- INCREASED DEMAND [THINK ABOUT 5 BROAD SECTORS]: DRINKING WATER, SANITATION, HYGIENE [WASH]; AGRICULTURE; ENERGY; MANUFACTURING; ECOSYSTEMS -- POLLUTION -- CLIMATE CHANGE -- INTERNATIONAL CONFLICTS -- OTHERS?

26. SOME SPECIAL CHALLENGES AND EMERGING KEY ISSUES GOVERNANCE: ANTI-CORRUPTION, FINANCE, LEGAL AUTHORITY/COMPLIANCE, GENDER, EQUITY, WATER ALLOCATION, WATER-RELATED CONFLICTS MORE “POP PER DROP”: REUSE, RECYCLING, DESALINATION, INCREASED EFFICIENCY [ESP FOR AGRICULTURE AND ENERGY] POLLUTION CONTROL

27. SOME PROMISING SOLUTIONS GREATER RECOGNITION OF THE CRISIS, PERHAPS LEADING TO MORE POLITICAL FOCUS BETTER INTEGRATION [AMONG DISCIPLINES; AMONG SDGS] BETTER MONITORING, DATA COLLECTION, AND ANALYSIS TECHNICAL EFFICIENCIES FOR AGRICULTURE DESALINATION WATER AS A METHOD FOR PEACE

28. CORE MANAGEMENT PROBLEMS STAN LASKOWSKI’S SHORT LIST CAPACITY BUILDING : SYSTEMS & INSTITUTIONS – LEGAL, REGULATORY, FINANCIAL, EDUCATION [ SUSTAINABILITY! ] INTEGRATION : WITH OTHER MDGS FINANCE : INCREASE TOTAL FUNDS AVAILABLE; MANAGE COMPETITION WITH OTHER PRIORITIES
