IFPRI is participating in World Water Week (WWW), the leading conference on global water issues.
World Water Week 2022 will offer a platform for important global conversations. The sessions will help to uncover water’s full value to society. Within the overall theme of “Seeing the unseen: The value of water”, the sessions will be grouped under three theme headings, the value of water for people and development, the financial and economic value of water and the value of water for nature and climate.
