During the regional process leading up to the 4th World Water Forum, it became clear that several water-related issues and challenges were common across the entire Asia-Pacific region.
Among these water issues, water-related disasters triggered by too much water or too little water are major challenges that our nations need to promptly overcome in order to ensure human security and poverty alleviation as well as for economic development.
In this direction, the Asia Pacific Water Forum
has created an adequate platform in the Asia Pacific region to share knowledge and experiences for effective and sustainable implementation of the
objectives and goals adopted by the Millennium development Goals, the Hashimoto Action Plan and the Hyogo Framework for Action.
