UNEP-DHI is providing technical assistance to the Strengthening the Flood Preparedness and Early Warning System in Sudan project in 2023-2024. Funded by the Climate Technology Centre and Network (CTCN), the project is implemented in partnership with the Nile Water Affairs Department of the Ministry of Irrigation and Water Resources, Sudan.
Water sustains life and ecosystems, playing a vital role in the Congo Basin’s carbon-rich peatlands. UNEP-DHI has been developing a tool that helps simulate how development and climate change affect these fragile landscapes. By making scientific data accessible, the Hydrological Decision Support System tool supports informed decisions that balance environmental protection with community needs.
UNEP marks World Lake Day by spotlighting climate change, over-abstraction, and pollution as major threats to lakes, while promoting integrated water management, basin-level approaches and data-driven monitoring as solutions to reverse their decline.
In collaboration with UNEP, Cap-Net, and ILEC, UNEP-DHI Centre is launching the 2025 edition of its Sustainable Lake Management (SLM) course. This online, free and self-paced course offers five modules to improve the understanding of fundamental principles of SLM and to equip participants with tools to develop, implement and refine a participatory lake recovery plan that promotes the sustainable use of lake resources.
Cambodia and Lao PDR have launched Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) Action Plans for 2026–2030, marking a significant step toward sustainable and climate-resilient water governance.
The Preliminary Integrated Water Resources Management Action Plan 2026-2030 for Lao PDR serves as a preliminary evaluation and monitoring report on the implementation of the IWRM Action Plan 2021-2025.
The “Cambodia Climate Resilient IWRM Action Plan 2026–2030: Toward the Achievement of Agenda 2030,” is designed to advance climate-resilient, integrated, and multi-purpose water resources management.
Integrated Water Resources Management for Climate Resilience, developed by UNEP-DHI in partnership with Cap-Net UNDP, UNEP Copenhagen Climate Centre, UN-Habitat, Global Water Partnership and UNDP, is an online, free and self-paced course that offers five modules designed to help practitioners plan climate resilient measures in the water sector.
The WIPO GREEN database is a free, solutions oriented, global innovation catalogue that connects needs for solving environmental or climate change problems with tangible solutions. The database consists of user uploads of needs and solutions, green technology patents from the WIPO Patentscope database, imports from select partner organizations, relevant knowledge material, and relevant expert profiles.
The continued deterioration of water quality poses one of the biggest threats to human and ecosystem health worldwide. This free online course provides participants with key insights on water pollution drivers, stakeholder involvement, and strategic planning for pollution prevention and management needed to tackle this issue.
The new 2024 Progress Report on the Implementation of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) in the Arab Region highlights the critical need for effective water resource management to achieve sustainable development goals. It serves as a comprehensive guide for policymakers, practitioners, and stakeholders, presenting key challenges and showcasing successful case studies from the region.
