UNEP-DHI is contributing to the global monitoring and reporting on the SDG indicator 6.6.1 producing the first of kind global assessment of the status and change of water-related ecosystems, based on Earth Observation.
Requested in The COP 13 as part of the Drought Initiative, the UNCCD Drought Toolbox was designed to provide drought stakeholders with easy access to tools, case studies and other resources to support the design of National Drought Policy Plan with the aim to boost the resilience of people and ecosystems to drought.
This project assessed the status and trends of the world’s 286 transboundary river basins, shared by 156 countries. The assessment included 15 key indicators on water quantity, water quality, ecosystems, governance and socioeconomics.
The Flood and Drought Management Tools initiative provides a methodology with online tools to facilitate the inclusion of information on floods and droughts, and future scenarios into basin water management.
The aim of the work is to reverse ecosystem and water degradation and support integrated ecosystem-based development in the Volta basin.
UNEP-DHI supported AMCOW in developing the web-based monitoring and reporting system in Africa to enable AMCOW to report on the the state of water in Africa.
This work involved the development of a water availability and water use model for the Nile Basin, integrating projections on climate change and water demand changes
